Now under BCP, are all bio courses considered or are only the ones that count for your degree?? Because I know of 2 Bio's that I have taken that are not required for my Bio Degree and they didn't go under my major gpa.

All responses will be greatly appreciated. 😀

Thanks,
Billy

Do you what the average BCP is for a matriculating DO student?

Depends on the school for the most part. I believe the average is around 3.4.
 
Which classes are considered part of your BCP? Bio, Chem, and Physics obviously are, but is math also part of the BCP like it is for allopathic? How about other non pre-med science courses such as geology? I assume not, but thought I would ask.
