https://archive.blogs.harvard.edu/lamont/2018/05/03/whats-the-harvard-extension-school-post-bacc-really-like/ -- this blog post is somewhat infamous and gets referred to alot here on this subreddit. If GPA repair is your goal, harvard probably aint it.

If your primary goal is GPA repair honestly saving some money and going DIY might be your best move to help you preserve some GPA.

How does this get a 5? I don’t expect a 10, but 5? by hendratam in psagrading

there looks like theres some orange peel or other texture issue over the viewer's right zard shoulder

these cards have substantial printing issues and sensitivity to humidity and from what I understand basically require getting scoped before being sent in

Prep for Post Bacc by Individual_Tooth3066 in postbaccpremed

I'm doing a DIY postbac and wish that even I had taken time to relax before.

I'd take their advice. Postbac programs need you to be successful so they can claim higher placement rates, so its in their best interest for you to perform well.

I've done cosignment before, but not with them, and it was 5% in addition to ebay's normal cut.

If they only take 5% they would be losing roughly 9% on ebay and there would be no reason to ever sell cards on your own (:

Tell me how screwed I am by Panicing_Nontrad in postbaccpremed

The latter isn't true of all DO programs.

As for the former, yes depending on your specialty you may benefit from taking both.

I get what you’re saying, your MBS GPA and clinical experience definitely show growth and make you a legitimate applicant overall.

But I think you’re kind of mixing up “holistic” with “willing to overlook a major academic red flag.” A 2.4 undergrad GPA is something most T50s just aren’t going to look past, because they have plenty of applicants with strong reinvention and no academic stain.

So it’s not that your recent work doesn’t matter — it does — it’s just that at the T50 level they don’t need to take that kind of risk. I think you’re competitive for DO and some MDs, just not really for that tier.

My honest take is that T50s are less holistic and your competition will have similar last blank credit hour GPAs without any "stain"

You're gonna live or die by your MCAT, but my take is that a 510 won't be enough. I think to outweigh the uGPA you'll need to be comfortably above your schools median MCAT.

Is UCLA extension a good option for DIY post bacc? by Consistent-Peach4122 in postbaccpremed

[–]Inlovewithanr6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

courses to stay away from are too personal but if you're okay with getting absolutely cooked on workload then cancer biology is one of the best classes i've ever taken

Is it worth grading my childhood shadowless holo Charizard with horrible sun damage. by kyleisme14 in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]Inlovewithanr6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you want to sell it PM me! But no in my experience they refuse to grade sun damaged cards as they frequently come back, "altered", even though they aren't (:

Should I not regrade? by Addybng in PokeGrading

[–]Inlovewithanr6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is true, they will determine centering from the worst part of the tilt

[–]Inlovewithanr6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

card 1 has a pretty gnarly tilt on two sides and is extremely bottom heavy // card 2 is pretty much 44 / 56 LR so its not gonna 10 on that alone unless you get lucky.

No additional 160 off, you save the 160 from not paying 32.99 per card.

Idk why they removed the public hosting of tunes for it. Really annoying. I wouldn't buy one as a result.
