First post here. I am in the process of changing my career. I have absolutely no science/health background. I've been out of school for about 5 years. My undergrad GPA was 3.3 with a few/no science related courses. A few volunteer experiences in college, but thats about it. Here are my questions.
How competitive are post bacc programs? Especially in New York? Do I have a better chance since I have no science grades to relate to? I get the impression that it's not as competitive as obviously medschool or even undergrad. Do they still look at my SAT scores? Mine was around 1900~2000
How do I find hospital volunteer work? Where do I start with no experience in the health field? I don't want to quit my full-time job until I get a taste of the hospital/patient interaction life but I need some kind of experience to apply to a post bacc program.
Any advise or insights on best MCAT study books?
