I'm starting the Drexel IMS postbac program this fall and am thinking of applying to med schools for next year. However, if I send in my application now it won't be any different from last time other than I'll be able to say that I'm enrolled in the IMS program.
After calling the Drexel admissions office they said that with my MCAT score(31S) and my science GPA (~3.1) I'm in the 'grey area'. When I got off the phone I felt less inclined to apply as I had previously planned, yet she did say that past IMS students applied successfully during their first year despite being advised to wait. Are there any former IMS students out there that applied successfully during their first year? If so, what were your stats (that is if you're comfortable listing them)? I'd especially love to hear from former IMS students that got into Drexel's med school, as that is what I'm hoping for. What did you do to promote yourself to the schools you applied to? Thanks in advance for your advice
