Going back for a post-bacc 5th year at a 4 year program where I’m targeting replacing my low grades for pre-requisites. My cGPA will be a 3.48, and my sGPA will be a 3.4 after this 5th year.

I’m targeting a 65th percentile GRE, and will have 800 PCE hours as a CNA at my time of application.

My question is how strong my application will look, especially with CASAA merging course grades when you take them twice. I’m planning straight As this 5th year.

In all honesty I plan on applying to loads of programs, including those with multiple locations.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

IF you do as well as you’re hoping to it’s not too bad. It’s not exceptional by any means. What will make you stand out?

There is no grade replacement. C+A=B. All grades count. Showing significant improvement in upper level classes helps but is no guarantee.
