There are two GPA's, the (normal) GPA and the (science) sGPA.

Are the science classes of the sGPA factored into the GPA? In other words, is the GPA all inclusive? Does scoring well in science prereqs also bring up my GPA?

When I eventually fill out my hypothetical Dental School applications, it would be highly advantageous to me if my science classes (which I am taking now) were able to bump up my old undergrad GPA (from over 10 years ago).

Thanks. Basic question, I know, sorry.
