It's nice to see so many people posting on the post-bacc forum! Makes me feel like I'm not so alone.
Anyway, I was looking for some information regarding post-bacc programs. I think I'm pretty clear about the route I want to take (a formal post-bacc program seems to be the preferred route in the eyes of the adcomm), but I think my undergrad grades are so bad, it may be tough to even get into a good post-bacc program! I was not a science major, and my GPA was ~2.8. There are several programs that sound great, but one of their requirements is 'educationally disadvantaged.' Anyone know what this means? Afterall, if you've got a B.A., how "disadvantaged" can you really be?
Also, does anyone have any experience with any programs in SoCal? (UCI, UCLA, UCSD, USC, Scripps, SMC, etc.) How about advice regarding do-it-yourself programs to boost the ol' GPA so I can get into a post-bacc?
Phew! I think that's!
Thanks, guys!
