What classes count?

So I am an engineering major in Illinos and I have a bunch of community college credits. I transfered those to a university that I am currently in. I am now taking a very difficult physics course for engineers. My grade for that not great at all but I have college credit for regular physics. How can I include that in my med school GPA, rather than the other harder physics? Is it possible to choose the regular cc physics over the engineering physics?

No...everything counts. My friend has to include classes taken at a community college while he was in middle school. It sucks but there is no way around it.

ChristianJames is right. You're out of luck, unfortunately. Everything you've taken at any U.S. or Canadian post-secondary college or university will appear on your AMCAS and influence your ugrad/BCPM GPA.

True Dat!!

Everything will definitely count in the transcript. If your new harder class is more engineering oriented you may be able to classify as engineering and save your BCPM a little bit of pain. Other than that, it will be on there, but may be able to do a little work. This does depend on the title and the class content, either call AMCAS or just wing it and hope they miss it. Might reccomend the former!
