First off I'm not asking "what are my chances with a 400 AA/ 400 TS a 4.30 GPA, 2000 hours of shadowing and a LOR from the president of the college that I want to go to."
So... I went to college and got a BA in psychology in 2005, didn't want to do anything with that and joined the army for 4 years. decided to go to optometry school went back to take science courses and a few other prereques. With my first 4 years in college I had a 2.9 something GPA but for the last 5 quarters i have had a 3.5 GPA almost all science classes. but because there is so much pulling my overall GPA down will that hurt my chances, or will the curve up at the end even it out? has anyone else been in a similar situation?
Just to be clear Im only asking about the GPA factor, my OAT scores were good.
