Hi everyone!
3.21 cGPA, 3.00 sGPA, 4.00 gGPA, 515 MCAT
I graduated college in '16 (Top #30 school) and enrolled in a graduate post-bacc (MS) and got a 4.0 (all classes in biomedical science). It really bothers me that my uGPA did not budge on my AMCAS even after all the hard work I put in grad school since that's put in a separate category. Aside from a high MCAT and gradGPA, I don't know what else I could do to make up for my low uGPA.
My worst was sophomore year of college (and I have addressed the reason behind the performance dip in my personal statment), followed by an upward trend. I would say my ECs are "satisfactory", and I have a unique personal statement that has no trouble standing out (that is if I manage to avoid merciless auto screens that may keep my file away from the admissions committee). I was wondering what my chances were for gaining admission/IIs to an MD program this cycle. So far, I have applied to 25 schools, and hoping to land at least a couple of interviews.
School list:
Drexel
TJU
Georgetown
GWU
BU
Tufts
NYMC
Dartmouth
Brown
Columbia
Medical college of Georgia
Morehouse
Mercer
Wayne State
UMich
Vanderbilt
Emory
Tulane
Rutgers
California Northstate
Quinnipiac
U Mass
Loyola
Rosalind Franklin
