My undergrad cGPA was 3.3 & sGPA of 3.34, MCAT 33
I have 12 publications, 3 first author papers with over 300 citations & research awards
Lots of leadership experience and volunteer work.
I just finished my first semester of my post bacc program. The first semester was supposed to be the hardest. I read a book on how to study before the semester started, and I ended up getting a 4.0. I don't want to jump the gun, but I do think I'll get another 4.0 in my second and final semester of my program.
I plan to retake my MCAT this June. I predict my score will go up a ~3+ points (relative to the new scale). I know a lot of this sounds ambitious, but I think its in the realm of possible. I never really knew how to study until I started my post bacc program.
If I pull this off, what are some of the top schools that might accept me despite my low UG GPA?
Do I have a shot at any Ivy leagues?
PS: I am Canadian
