Should note my classes listed above except A&P were completed at a top ranked institution since we brought "where'd you get 'em?" into this.
I don't really see the point in these types of posts. Who cares what grades people made in certain classes?
I'd also like to point out that getting all A's at a CC is a lot different than getting A's at a notoriously difficult undergrad university.
But I am also shocked when people include their GPA/PCAT score as part of their signature. Obnoxious.

Someone should plot this information on a graph! Put PCAT composite score on the Y axis and put the average of these classes on the X axis! It would be interesting lol.

This thread does not reflect the typical pre-pharmacy student! Don't be deterred by these high grades.

there was one on average pcat score but i can't seem to find it.

lol I know right?
Mine are the same... I guess the cool schools don't offer A+P. lol
As others have mentioned, the stats help us to gauge what schools we should apply for or may have a chance at. People typically list what schools they are applying to and are accepted to right along with their stats. I doubt there is anything boastful about it with the exception of maybe a few gunners out there. But, even so, it turns out to be helpful information anyway.
You get on that, buddy!

And if you have taken your PCAT, your score? 99%
Applied 1 school only and got in
University of United States
School of Truck Driver
Class of 2013
I'm actually tempted to do it, I'm so bored some times... LOL.
It was offered as a weird 4-class series, so I never took it back in the day. It was 2 quarters of Anatomy then 2 quarters of physio (lab 1 quarter after lecture 1 quarter).
Weird weird weird.

@ truck driving school. Hey desklamp, did you get in this year?
i just got my acceptance email but now i am torn between the 3-year truck driving school program and the 4-year in-state truck driving university which is like way cheaper.
please halp guyzzzzz
Its ridiculous that any college would give out A+'sChem I - A
Chem II - A

Bio II - A+
Orgo I - A

Physics II - currently taking, hard to tell ... uncurved, it would be B+

In state truck driving school, fo shizzle.
We all need to shut up and stop showing off

EDIT: The linked file is incorrect! I took a look at the title and it actually refers to mean GPA of first year students. I'll be updating my posts to reflect my error :x
The thing that does not compute is awarding A+'s on a 4.0 scale when an A is worth 4.0. It parallels the fact that many institutions don't award D-'s, as anything lower than a D is considered an F. Many of the top institutions in the country did not star using - and + modifiers until the last 15 years or so, and continue to not use the idea of "above perfect," or an A+.Why do you think that? Why should there be:
80-83 B-
84-87 B
88-90 B+
but not the same for A?
Does not compute.

Should I take the January 2011 PCAT? I will be taking Bio 102, Orgo I and Precalc in the fall. I am not sure if those classes will be enough.

What you've got now, plus Organic I and Pre-calc, should be all you need to score very well on the PCAT. I had yet to take Calculus when I took the PCAT and found very little by the way of complicated Calc. The remainder of your knowledge should be sufficient to do very well!
I am not just going to rely on the classes I have and will be taking. I also have Dr. Collins notes and Pearson practice tests. Do you think I will be fine? Plus do you think I can get into pharmacy school with a GPA of 3.5 or above but PCAT in the 40s or 50s? I am terrified of standardized tests
