Hi.

Which GPA would be more important in the admission process,
BCP or science GPA?

Say 3.6 BCP/3.5 science vs 3.5 BCP/3.6 science
which would be better?
 
This really depends on the school. I have had some schools specifically tell me they do not use the science gpa and only the overall and bcp are considered with bcp being the most important. OHSU told me this and someone else mentioned columbia once but those are the only two schools I have seen specifically posted about.
 
Personally, I would say the two most important are the BCP and the overall. I also think it is a plus if the two are relatively close to each other. This shows consistency.

I really doubt there's a difference between 3.5 and 3.6, regardless of whether it's BCP or science. As long as there's no huge discrepancy between BCP and science GPA, it should be ok.
