<p>All BS/MD programs seem to ask for a minimun GPA.
My school does not rank. No GPA is used at all.
Dose anybody know how colleges may handle my application?</p>
<p>How does your school evaluate students? Is there any type of grading scale?</p>
<p>We get letter grades; on average one student per each graduating class gets all A- or above.
The rest get B+, B, B-… The overall average is between B+ and B. These are all AP or honor classes. If this is converted into GPA, it may be around 3.2 unweighted? And mine is B.<br>
The school’s letter to colleges says it is an honors school and we don’t rank and don’t provide GPA. We have average SAT score of ~2150, 20% NMSF, and 70% commended students, each year on average. All of my scores (AP, SAT2, SAT1) are higher than the school’s average.
The distribution of standardized tests and class grades will be also included in the letter.</p>
<p>If colleges screen applicants first by GPA cut-off or by rank, I will be straight out.
My dilemma is whether I even consider to apply.</p>
<p>You may want to contact the programs to ask how they handle schools such as yours.</p>
