Retaking classes

[PhD2MD]

Does retaking a class and receiving a higher grade count the same in dental apps as it does in med apps (ie, they only use the new grade in determining overall GPA).

Also, do they have Science specific GPA (if so, does it include course like math or anatomy)?

Unfortunately when you retake a course, AADSAS will count both your old grade and your new grade.

They have an overall GPA, which includes all courses taken throughout your undergrad education.

They do indeed have a calculation for science GPA which, includes all science courses, math courses, and computer science courses.

They also have a BCP GPA which, consists of only biology, chemistry, and physics courses.

Finally, a non-science GPA which, includes all courses except for those calculated in the science GPA.
