Hi, i need some help on deciding whether going into a post bac is a better option for my situation.
I have a 3.448 overall and a 3.428 science gpa. But i have not done well on my first mcat. So i was planning on retaking it in july18th.
I was advised to go into a post bac program because med school is very competitive to get into. But i thought that my gpa was slightly below avg and said why dont i just spend money on a mcat course again and do 30+ on mcats to balance it? instead of spending 20k+ on a post bac? I have applied to post bacs but havent got any decisions yet. mainly i want to goto either drexel msp or bu mams. but i have applied to tufts and a masters program at my undergrad university.
any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks!
