As of right now your app is lethal. I don't see any evidence that you can handle med school.I am a third year student at a 4 Year University and I plan on attending medical school in the Fall of 2019. Below I am going to list a few of my statistics to see what some of you think about my chances of being accepted into any medical schools.
GPA-2.7
Bio 1-A Lab-B
Bio 2-B Lab-A
Ecology-C
Genetics-A
Chemistry 1-C Lab-B
Chemistry 2-C Lab-A
Psychology-D Plan on retaking in the Spring of '18
Sociology B
Math 100-F took it my first semester of college. I was undecided at the time and did not know what I wanted to do Currently have not taken MS112 or MS113. Plan on taking both in the Spring of '18
Shadowing: Neurologist in my local area (25 hours)
Attended High School in a rural area.
My GPA has somewhat of an Upward trend. Made the Deans list 2 semesters ago. Had 1 C in the Spring of '17
I will have completed 63 hours after this semester and we have to have a total of 120 to graduate. So if I make all A's and a few B's and can somehow get my gpa to a 3.4-3.5 and can score decent on the MCAT do you think there is still a chance I get accepted? I appreciate the feedback by the way. I'm just trying to figure out any possible way I can still be a good applicant Any recommendations would help out too. @candbgirl @Goro
Thanks for the feedback. I looked at some D.O. Schools, LECOM in Florida, ACOM and VCOM in Alabama. Do you know about how many hours of shadowing, clinical experience, and volunteer I would need to help boost my chances? Thanks so much for replying to my post!
Yes, I have been taking a low amount of hours each semester. But I know I need to buckle down if I still want to have a shot. I plan on taking a couple classes in the summer to help me get back on track and take the MCAT in August. I started studying October 1st so I could have plenty of time to learn the material and get the best grade I can. I didn't take my first semester serious at all and my gpa was quite embarrassing (I know it still is). But I believe I will be able to get it up some. Do you know about how many hours of shadowing, clinical experience, and volunteering I would need to help boost my chances?
Alright, I feel like I have a good understanding of what I need to do now thanks to your response! I greatly appreciate the feedback you gave me!
Read this:What do you think I would need to do in order to become a successful applicant? I'm willing to do whatever it takes and any advice helps. I forgot to state that I am an Alabama resident. @Goro
