Hi,
I am currently in the process of applying to med school for Fall 2012 (haven't submitted my AMCAS yet). I am retaking my MCAT in August with hopes of getting a score in the high 20s or low 30s. My undergrad gpa is pretty bad (3.0) due to a really bad freshmen and sophomore year. I believe that with a high MCAT score, I could definitely get into a school in the Caribbean.
But I was just offered a job at a renowned research lab. The downside is that the lab asks for a 2 year commitment. If I take the job, will it increase my chances of getting into a US med school in Fall 2013? Or should I just apply to a Caribbean med school and attend during Fall 2012?
Thanks for all your help!
