Accepted with below average GPA/MCAT

[whoknows87]

Hello Again Fellow SDN members

I have no idea if this thread was made already if it exists feel free to shut this down and redirect me to the original thread

This is for those who had average/below average GPA and/or low MCAT and still got in to medical school ( first try or 2nd try), Why do you think you made it when the odds were against you? I'm sure some people thought you wouldn't make it , but you still beat the odds and applied anyways and got in , even if u applied to 30 schools and got into one at least you got IN

please share some of your success stories and give us Pre-meds some advice on what to expect ?

Please give us Data to go by , your age, gpa , mcat , how many school you applied to? volunteer experience and etc anything that you feel will help us please share

Thanks
