Hello,
I graduated undergrad with ~3.0 GPA. I received a 23 on my MCAT (took it a few years ago). I recently did a one-year SMP masters program, but failed to reach the cut off. The first semester I got a 2.88, and the second semester I got a 3.7. Although I worked really hard to try to be in the top 50% of the class, my first semester GPA still brought me down.
I am now thinking of what other options I can take. My advisor suggested that I re-take my MCAT, and apply again to schools. However, I think that my first semester GPA in my masters will cut my chances at getting in anywhere. Should I start thinking of alternative options?
