Talk to us about your current GPA.

"I feel that my GPA of 3.7 could have been higher; however, I was working full time while attending classes. I learned a lot about discipline and commitment during my undergraduate program, and I feel these will be qualities for success here at Albany Medical College."

"My current GPA is a fair reflection of my above-average ability in pre-med coursework. You will see that my basic science GPA is even higher than my overall GPA, which suggests my abilities within this field."

Honesty is the best policy when answering this question because if you are chosen to be one of the students accepted into Albany's medical school, the school will call for official transcripts. If you are satisfied with your GPA, talk about the hard work you put in to make it a reality. On the other hand, if you are not 100% satisfied with your GPA, talk about the factors that led to it being lower than you had hoped and what you learned from this that will help you succeed in medical school at Albany Medical College.
