Members do not see this ad.

I won't say at what school, I'm not sure why, but I just don't feel right disclosing any info because it was a very friendly convo arranged by a mutual friend... however he did say some interesting things...

1. BCP, Sci GPA and CUM GPA must all be above 3.0 or they wont even look at the app.

2. They generally wont look at anyone who hasn't shadowed.

but this one that I thought was really interesting..
3. They don't look at your individual classes and grades**, just like the GPA totals so really any class is as good as the next

** however he said they will peak at it if something sticks out in your DATs... for example, say you got 20s across the board, except in Orgo you got a 17... he will look at your orgo grades just too see if you had an off day... or if thats just not your subject or something....

Hum, Interesting

interesting but harmful for me (BCP 2.75...)

interesting but harmful for me (BCP 2.75...)

and me... cause my BCP is about the same... however, I have a semester to change that, and I think its possible if I take one bio and one chem get A's

but thats only for this specific school

as much as it sounds interesting i BELIVED it's true..

so ppl who have borderline sci GPA need to take more classes? that sucks!!!
