Hi. I notice that in the AADSAS GPA calculation section, there are BCP and Non Science GPAs and also like WO +/- Inc. +/-. What are those for?? Do admission committees look at all of them?? Or are the Science and Total Gpa the ones that are most important??

The BCP GPA is just for your bio/chem/physics classes...that and the non-science GPA are just another number for adcoms to look at and compare applicants. The overall GPA and sciGPA are usually most important though. The with/without +/- GPAs even out the system so that everyone's GPAs can be standardized whether or not your school gives out +/- grades.
