Dual Enrollment is med school GPA

<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I was wondering how credits and med school GPA is calculated when dual enrollment credits are present. I have been taking prerequisite courses, such as bio. 1 and 2, chem. 1 and 2, and calc. 1 and 2 at a state university. I will be going to a different state university for college and will be jumping straight into the upper level division classes thanks to my DE classes. I was wondering if these credits are accounted for in my GPA that will be calculated by AMCAS. The university I will be going to next fall will be accepting all credits, as the benchmarks and numbering system are the same for both universities, but only at a pass or fail bases, not taking in the actual grade I received. </p>

<p>Thanks you for the help.</p>

<p>They will be counted in full by AMCAS regardless of what your university does with them. AMCAS requires transcripts from any college/university you took any classes at.</p>

<p>So I can just take a lot of college classes and just dilute the grade so that if I ever get a B in the future, it wont affect me as much?</p>

<p>Correct, the more credits you have, the less each individual class counts.</p>
