Bio masters vs SMP

[RangeRover89]

Has anyone recently done a regular MS in Bio? I am just debating whether to do the SMP (cost would be triple ) over a regular MS at a local university? Did the regular MS enhance your app?

Below 3.0 gpa ----> SMP
3.0-3.3 -----> MS BIO

My overall GPA is a 3.1 and science GPA is a 2.91 .. DAT is a 20 across the board except orgo which is 21 and QR which is a 23

does anyone have any other experiences?

I'm in the MS biology. It has increased my chances, but don't go into it unless you really enjoy the sciences. Thesis projects is no easy task to pursue.

Would the general consensus be to sign up for a SMP program in BU or Rutgers (for those in the Northeastern portion of the USA)?

I had a 3.1 oGPA and 2.99 science. Went with masters , which is also cheaper and have 20's across the board , except for QR 16. I have plenty of intervoews , I would suggest Doing masters. It's also a fall a k just in case. With an SMP you won't e considered to have a master's at many work places.

Hypothetically your dental goals don't pan out, I'd rather have a MS degree with a thesis to fall back on rather than a SMP, the MS will be more useful for finding an alternative career.
