Ok, here is the deal. I am still in college and I haven't been doing so well. For the first two years, I acquired 2 F's, 1 D, 4 C's, a lot of Bs, 4 A's
Science GPA:
o chem I - B+
gen chem I - B+
Physics I - C+/B+
Biology I - B+
O chem II - 2 W's and then finally an A (W's were for medical reasons)
Physics II - A/A-
Biology II - A
I have 69 more units to take. Let's say I get all A's the in rest of my classes (I am not joking about this). How significant is an upward trend going to do for me?
MCAT score: 35
Extracurricular's
4 Medical Mission trips
Scribe: 3 years
ED Volunteer: 3 years with over 1000 hours of volunteering
UCSF Research 3 years
UCSF hospital volunteering
Organized and hosted over 150 blood drives
Women's clinic volunteer for 1 year
-------
Do you recommend that I take a post-bac to improve my grades? Perhaps pursue a Master's of Public Health? I want to become an OB/GYN or Trauma Surgeon and would like to get into a medical school like UCSF, UCI, UCD, Vanderbilt, Loma Linda, UCLA - How can I make myself a realistic applicant for those medical schools? I am willing to retake MCAT for a higher school. I have medication documentation that I can show for my unstable first 2 years of college.
