What is the ADEA AADSAS BCP GPA?
The Associated American Dental Schools Application Service (ADEA AADSAS) calculates a specialized BCP GPA, which includes all coursework taken in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Dental school admissions committees heavily weight the BCP GPA alongside the DAT (Dental Admission Test) score to evaluate academic preparation for rigorous dental school curricula.
How ADEA AADSAS Calculates GPAs
AADSAS converts all letter grades to a standard 4.0 scale. Plus/minus grades are included (e.g. A- = 3.7, B+ = 3.3). Notably, AADSAS converts A+ grades to 4.0 grade points.
