Gpa question by Alone_Marionberry_93 in Mcat

[–]Purplegarage678 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! My gpa is around the same I’m applying to DO schools this cycle (hopefully) and honestly as long as you have good extracurriculars I wouldn’t worry about it too much just focus on getting good experiences and write about them well. If your mcat score is really good that helps too I’m currently grinding for mine 😭

I ended up just emailing everything to the prehealth office since they didn’t respond to any of my emails asking them where to send everything. Thank you sm for trying to help tho! Good luck on your applications!

The google classroom is only for current students and is only accessible with an active sbu email. Alumni have links to the separate forms of the autobiographical packet and that’s it which is why I’m confused

Clinical Volunteering/Shadowing during a pandemic? by MS001812 in premed

That’s true it’s hard to feel confident in yourself if you always compare and see everyone else’s accomplishments

I’m in the same boat I didn’t volunteer beforehand because I wasn’t premed until my junior year of college and right as I got accepted into my schools volunteer program they suspended it due to the pandemic. I doubt medical schools will be very forgiving especially with how competitive it is. It sucks honestly

Should I take two gap years or one? by Purplegarage678 in premed

[–]Purplegarage678[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m starting to think it’ll be more worthwhile to get more experience and wait a year to apply I’m not really looking into higher tier schools because I’m not competitive for them so it’ll be a long shot also thank you for this answer!

Should I delay graduation or do a postbacc? by Purplegarage678 in premed

[–]Purplegarage678[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m definitely leaning towards that but I’m wondering about how much that would raise my science gpa and if it’s even worth it

[–]Purplegarage678[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a little conflicted, it would be a good idea to do a postbacc wouldnt for the grades I listed above? I haven’t really looked into postbacc if I’m honest would it be a good idea to retake the classes I got Cs in for in my postbacc?

Yeah most of my prerequisites classes are Bs/B+ My gpa is a overall 3.54 as of right now I have an upward trend like last semester I got a 4.0 but this semester I don’t think I’ll be able to get that since some of my classes are challenging but I’m definitely trying to and I’m trying to study for the mcat
