Hi,
I'm currently entering my senior year of college. I'm gonna really try to bring my GPA up this year and retake my bio courses to boost my bio GPA. I know my GPAs are really low, but I'm still hoping that I will get in somewhere. I'm also considering PA schools. I haven't taken the MCAT yet, but I was wondering what would be a good range for me to get in order to offset my GPA and get in somewhere. What are my chances? Also, I'm Asian if that matters
cGPA - 3.15
sGPA - 3.00
2 yrs of undergraduate research in a Lab
- about 20hrs/ week
Participated in Undergraduate Research Program ( Presented a poster)
1 yr of volunteering at local hospital in the ED (about 130 hrs)
Member of a leadership society (just started but hoping to be very involved this year)
Studied abroad for a summer and took a bio class for credit (if this helps any)
Future goals
-Looking to get EMT certified
-Hopefully find an internship in a medical office
-Medical mission
I'm planning to take a year off or even two to improve my application. Any advice on what I should do?
