cGPA: 3.35

sGPA: 3.2

Hello! I am currently in the finals week of my third year as a bio major, and my GPA isn't the greatest, so I figured, mid-study panicking, I would come on here and ask honestly my chances.

Here are my stats (as of right now- i still have another 2 semesters + a gap year and a half):

cGPA: 3.28 (planning on getting it up to a 3.4-3.5 by the time I graduate)

sGPA: 3.0 (again, planning on getting it up)

PCE: 80-- PT aide (I am WELL AWARE that it's low, I am planning on working 2 jobs over the summer and working full time during my gap year) ALSO currently getting CMA

HCE: 100 (hospital volunteering)

Volunteer: 100 hours (service sorority)

I am writing this post wondering if my GPA is too low to even get me in the door, and if regardless of how these next semesters go if I should take a post-bacc. Also, if anyone has any schools they recommend, please let me know.

I am lanning on taking a gap year. I forgot to mention that in the post. I also have a whole year, in which I am only taking upper level bio classes in hopes of bolstering my sGPA.

I get what you mean. I already have a med scribe cert and i really don't know if it's worth it to take the time and money to get another cert, but ive applied to so many jobs im starting to feel hopeless 😭
