"I feel that my science GPA could have been higher than 3.6. However, I worked full-time while attending classes. Overall, I learned a lot about discipline and commitment and was happy with the effort I put in. If accepted into Loma Linda's School of Dentistry Program, I will not be working and can put my full attention to my studies."

"My current GPA is a fair reflection of my above-average ability in pre-dental coursework. You will see that my basic science GPA of 3.8 is even higher than my overall GPA, which is suggestive of my abilities within this field."

You most likely have met the requirements if you were invited to a formal interview. Tell the interviewers what your science GPA is. If it is lower than you would have liked, explain where you had difficulties and how you plan to improve if accepted into Loma Linda's School of Dentistry Program.
