Hi, I hope everyone is well and safe!
I am in preparation to apply to dental school and I am writing this in the hope of getting some advice on how I should proceed with my plan.
I graduated from CUNY with a biology degree with an overall GPA and a sci GPA of 2.7.
I want to increase my GPA from 2.7 to 3.0 and I was wondering if taking 3 biology classes(12 credits) from CUNY as a non-degree student would help raise my overall and sci GPA to 3.0.
Or would post bacc program be better?
Also, the grades I receive as a non-degree student, how would those grades and credits included in my current status? Is it a separate grade from my undergraduate GPA or get included in my undergraduate GPA?
If it is not possible to raise my GPA with several bio classes, then would a high DAT score(23 and up) would give the admissions committee confidence that I could pass their curriculum?
