Restart your GPA???

[Frankie C]

Is it possible to wait 5 years to have all your pre-req's become useless? I know most PA school's want certain classes within the last five years.

 

My pre-req aren't horrible, 3.3, but I'm afriad that won't be competitive enough to get into PA School, so I was considering working on HCE as an EMT-P and letting 5 years pass so I can start my pre-req's over and ace them! Thoughts?

It would look good to have all recent pre-reqs with great grades, but you'll still have to put your old grades on CASPA. It wants every college grade ever. There's no reason you can't start re-taking prereqs now before the technically "expire" as it's not like the old grades will disappear.

Unfortunately, all college grades you've ever received are added into your Caspa GPA and Science GPA....I had classes from 1999 (12 years ago)...that i took at a junior college when I was a senior in high school....it didn't matter, they were still include in my GPA.....

I can even go one better with courses on my GPA from the late 80's that I wish could disapeer
