Hello SDN community!
I'm so glad to be here and officially begin my long journey in the fascinating field of medicine!
Here is my profile:
BS Computer Science - Graduated in 2013 (non-US, but equated to US credits) cGPA 2.75/4
MS Computer Science- State university- Graduating in May cGPA 3.5
I'm in Washington State and was just admitted to a local community college to take science pre-reqs.
Which courses do I need to take? Will my previous educational background be considered?
I'm planning to work as an MA to gain the required clinical hours. I plan to take all science courses on a DIY curriculum and sit for the MCAT late next year. How does my plan sound, is there anything else I should do to stand out? I plan to broadly apply to med schools when I do, especially those in the west coast.
I am a US citizen too.
