How are retakes factored into your GPA? I took all of the prereqs approx 8-10 years ago and did well in all of them besides O Chem.

From what I know, a degree will expire in 7 years if it isnt used. I think your grades will be reset.

i did not know this.......

@op, well hopefully your degree did not expire. if you retake a class, i am pretty sure AADSAS calculates the new and old grade into your gpa.

I believe some schools do not take prequisite credits older than 5 years.

Good luck!

degree will not "expire" (its still on your AADSAS app), just that it will have been so long that schools want to ensure you still know the material (which may mean taking classes no earlier than 7 years ago). similar issue with the DAT, most schools want scores <2 years old, in that not so much time has passed that you've forgotten all material from the exam.
