I know that med schools like upwards trends (which I do have), but I was just wondering if they look at all four of them (cumulative, BCPM, other, running) or favor one (ie BCPM)? Currently, my running GPA trend isn't terrific, but the BCPM-only trend looks hopeful. Thanks!

BCPM GPA and cGPA are most likely to attract specific attention, especially if your GPAs are below average for a school.
