2.46 sGPA and 2.92 cGPA

[moe619]

I have attempted 250 units. I will be graduating with a major in Philosophy and a B.S in Biology.

Currently, my sGPA is 2.46 and cGPA is 2.92.

Made many stupid mistakes like taking too many classes in a single semester, not knowing how to drop a class the first 2 semesters of college and just stopped showing up for some classes, and just not taking college seriously for the first few semesters. I am doing better now as a student, passing upper-division science courses like Immunology, Medical Microbio, and Hematology with A's and B's.

I plan on taking one or two more semesters, probably for a total of about 20-25 units of science classes. But If I can manage all As next semester I am willing to continue taking science courses to boost the sGPA.

If I hypothetically get all As for these next ~20 or so units, I can get my cGPA to a 3.0. sGPA would need about 46 units to get to 2.8

Would I have a chance of Dental school if I somehow manage to get my cGPA up to 3.0 and sGPA up to around 2.7? I know I wouldn't be competitive but would there be a realistic chance of getting in if I put more effort, time, and money working on my GPA?

I don’t think you are allowed to cross post, seeing as you asked this question already in the prepod section.

I’ll make it easy for you:

Most stuff is out.

Pod, Pharm, and maybe Optometry (on a good day) are still doable with the right scores. It depends on your entrance exams at this point. Go study.

Not satisfied with the answers in the other thread, you had to start a different one asking the same thing? Btw this is not permitted here on SDN. This thread will likely be closed soon.

Just trying to figure out what is a possibility. Thanks for letting me know about Pod, Pharm, and Opt.

Since this was posted in four different forums, and the med thread received the most responses, I'm going to direct all other input there.

If you would like to give OP your thoughts on their situation and their "chances" at Dent, Pod, Pharm, Opt, or Med school, post there.
