I applied this past cycle to enter Fall 2016, have been waitlisted at 2 schools.
My stats:
MCAT 507
cGPA 3.44
sGPA 3.46
I graduated from UChicago in 2011, double major (Econ/Chem), had analyst jobs since. Started working as a full time EMT just when I submitted my applications.
As I look to reapply, I am considering post bac programs to boost my GPA and will retake the MCAT (even though it hurts me inside). By the time I reapply, my sGPA would be 3.69 and I would've spent 3,000+ hours as an EMT/ER tech.
Do you think that would finally be good enough to get into a few med schools? What would you consider the main issue in this first application?
PS. I have asked schools for feedback, and am waiting... Apologies if I sound like annoying in this post. It took a lot for me to finally get on here and post this. FML.
