Science GPA

[AdenineThomasPhosphate]

Hi there!

I've been looking around for a solid answer and seem to be getting mixed results. Is the sGPA all science grades averaged (science electives included) or is it just the courses required for medical school (general bio and chem, orgo, physics, statistics, and calculus)?

Thanks!

In AMCAS, the sGPA is EVERY math, biology, chemistry, and physic course, averaged together.

Awesome! That actually boosts my sGPA, thanks for the prompt answer!

There's a chart from the AAMC about what kind of courses will fit under BCPM/be counted towards sGPA that is a good resource
