Hello all, I have a reasonably strong DAT score but a weak GPA. I got a D from Calculus II the first time around, long story. I'm planning on retaking it over this summer but I'm not too sure about how this D/retaking will affect my application to certain schools that requires 2 semesters of math. My sisters have told me that if I do retake it over this summer, it might put a "pending" status into my application and schools usually won't look at such application until it is complete. Please help me out here. Below are my stats
DAT:
AA 25
TS 30
PAT 22
QR 19
RC 20
oGPA on transcript: 3.323
GPA calculated using "Cal Pre Dental Society - GPA Calculator for ADEA AADSAS 2012 - 2013 (semester system only)"
BCP: 3.517
BCP+ other Science 3.363
oGPA: 3.345
Assuming average ECs and LORs.
School List:
All 4 schools in NY (New Yorker in the house)
Buffalo
Stony Brook - second oldest sister currently in DS3.
NYU
Columbia
(SB and Columbia maybe a stretch but I think it's worth a shot.)
OOS:
UMDNJ
UDM
Tufts - oldest sister went here
Temple
pittsburgh
UPenn
UConn
UoF
Midwestern
Please help me refine this list or just throw in more schools as long as they're within my reach. Please also give me some advice on what to with my Calc II, I know a retake is in order, but how will it affect my application? Thanks a lot!
