<p>So I took Community college courses in highschool...about 33 units averaging out to a 3.3 gpa.</p>
<p>I just started college, let's say i get a 4.0 in all four years.</p>
<p>Does that mean my AAMC GPA will average out to a 3.6 between my college courses in highschool and my four year university gpa??</p>
<p>Does this mean I will never be able to apply to med school with a 4.0?????</p>
<p>Yes…that’s what it means. Those dual enrollment courses will get calculated in.</p>
<p>BTW…if you’ve taken 33 credits and have a 3.3, then why do you think you’ll get a 4.0 for the next 4 years? The classes that you’ll be taking from now on will likely be harder than the ones where you got a 3.3</p>
<p>I suggest taking at least 130 credits during your 4 years to further dilute those dual courses’ grades.</p>
<p>And that yes is still a yes even if your UG gives you zero credit for the dual-enrollment classes. Any college course taken anytime anywhere counts in your AMCAS GPA. Your 4.0 AMCAS is gone forever. Sorry. It’s just like a 3.3 freshman year. </p>
<p>You have dug yourself a hole, but you can still crawl out with yeoman effort and careful planning. No more mistakes or mis-steps. After 3 years of UG your GPA may not be where you want it to apply. Count on a full 4 years of UG grades before application to further dilute the 3.3. Good luck.</p>
<p>Also…what were the dual courses in? Science/math? humanities? Why did you get the grades that you did?</p>
<p>If they will be part of your BCMP GPA, then you especially need to dilute them.</p>
<p>I would be concerned with the plan of getting 4.0 after having 3.3 in CC. How exactly you are planning to accomplish that? What are you going to do differently? You deinitely need to change drastically to go from 3.3 at CC to 4.0.</p>
