Science Pre-Req Gpa

[Ellennn]

I was really stupid for not doing physiology so they can count the 4 recommended courses instead... I got 4.0 in the other 3 recommended courses, but sadly missing physiology. I emailed them and they said they would only use the recommended courses instead of the 7 basic sciences IF you completed all 4 of them. 

 

So I screwed up one of the first-year physics. My 7 basic science pre-req GPA is 3.95. Is this competitive? I was under the impression that everybody has 4.0 for these basic sciences?? 

 

I'm going a bit crazy regretting not having taken physiology... I didn't know about this policy of replacing pre-req GPA with the one for recommended courses

Everyone does NOT have 4.0 for the basic sciences (I sure as hell don't  ). 3.95 is excellent.

Don't fret about things you cannot control

 

3.95 is great.

Average basic science prereq GPA for university in-province applicants two years ago hovered around 3.6. You are very much above average.

if we've done all the pre-reqs classes suggested (11), but it says 7 maximum, do we choose which 7 grades to submit?

and if i've done the 4 recommended ones and i got a better gpa in that, do i still need to submit the 7pre-reqs?

Hello,

i got a question for you guys concerning section 2. I completed pharmD program last year, and this program is considered a doctorate. The problem is, when I choose doctorate as doctorate type in section 2, i cannot choose it from the dropdown in section 3. My question is: should I enter it twice in section 2 (As bachelor to be able to add it in section 3 and Doctorate), and in that case, I'd have 2 lines for it in section 2.

 

My second question is concerning the recommended courses. I've done 3 courses, in which i got 2 good grades and 1 avergage. Do you think I can only mention the good ones and forget about the average one, as it's recommended courses and not a must to fill it?

 

Thanks!

I had the same issue, and asked admission office who told me that : "Hi

Graduate course are not entered in table 3 but you would list in table 2 that you have begun doing a PhD."

 

for the recommended courses, you need to have done all 4 of them in order for them to count.

So of what i understand, i'll have to put it twice in section 2:

first line as a bachelor from 2011-2015

second line doctorate from 2011-2015

NP: it's not a PHD what I did, it's like DMD, MD, OD, PharmD that's y am a bit confused...

Sounds like a PharmD is a professional program. Check the workbook guide. For section 2, it says "Doctorate: professional or thesis-based program leading to a Doctorate degree. Some examples include: PhD, M.D., J.D., O.D,. D.V.M."

 

They also show you how to input your program into Section 2. You would list it as a doctorate and then check the box at the far right for "Professional Program" ("e.g.: programs that lead to the practice of a profession for which one must be a member of a professional order.").

 

Does that make sense?
