Hello,
I am new to the forum and I have been reading through many of the posts and while I am sure my question may have been answered some time ago I want to pose the question relative to my personal dilemma.
I am a senior (graduating in July--- Biology major with a Religious studies minor). My GPA is LOW (2.96). Hopefully by the end of the semester I will have a 3.02.
My science GPA is really low. Off the top of my head I am not sure what I am sitting with (possibly 2.7 but will be a 3.0 at the end of the semester).
I am HUGE in community service. I volunteer with the American Red Cross, a local high school band program, and various random small projects.
So given this, what are my chances at medical school?
Should I apply to a post bacc program or get a masters? I am open to either.
What should my next step be?
ps. My university is not a strong environment for medical or DO school. My advisor told me in the last 4 years they have not gotten a single student into medical school and only about 30 have applied in that time. So I need some kind of advice! :)
Thank you :)
