Hi guys,
I have a 2.96 gpa and am looking for masters programs to apply to. My plan is to do well in the masters program and then apply to medical school. However, as a back up plan, if I chose to not apply to medical school, I'd like to complete a phD and pursue a career in research.
With that in mind, I'd love suggestions for a masters program (most interested in physiology) that would consider my low, less than 3.0 gpa.
Other facts about me that might help with coming up with suggestions:
- Kinesiology major
- based in the Midwest
- worked in a research lab and did testings on professional athletes - 1 year
- interned in a cardiovascular institute this past summer - did stress tests, cardiac rehab, ekgs, etc
- interned at a PT clinic this past summer and did ultrasounds, thermotherapy, etc
- worked in an orthopedic research office for a year doing data entry - official position "student researcher"
- worked at a children's hospital doing data entry for 3 months - official position "student researcher"
- can get 3-4 letters of rec - from research prof, adviser, exercise physiologist I interned with, boss at research job
- taking GRE next month for the first time
Thank you in advance.
