What is BCPM?

AMCAS (The American Medical College Application Service) calculates a separate GPA for all science and math courses.

  • Biology
  • Chemistry
  • Physics
  • Mathematics (including Stats)

All other classes (English, History, Psychology, etc.) are classified as AO (All Other).

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know, based on what students are asking right now.

BCPM stands for Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics. The medical school application system (AMCAS) isolates these subjects into a separate BCPM GPA to evaluate your aptitude for hard sciences.
Any class that does not strictly fall under Biology, Chemistry, Physics, or Math is classified as AO (All Other). This includes Humanities, Social Sciences, English, Psychology, Sociology, and usually Health Sciences.
No. Psychology and Sociology are classified under Behavioral & Social Sciences by AMCAS, meaning they factor into your AO (All Other) GPA, not your BCPM GPA.
According to the AAMC, the average GPA for matriculated medical school students in recent years is roughly a 3.82 Cumulative GPA and a 3.75 BCPM GPA.
AMCAS does not honor 'grade forgiveness' or replacement policies from your undergraduate institution. Every course you took, including original failing grades that you later retook, must be included and averaged into your AMCAS GPA.
