Hello, I am a rising senior at a small liberal arts college with a cumulative GPA of a 3.42. I have raised my GPA 0.51 over the course of my undergraduate career (My last three semesters of college have 3.6 or above). I have just been accepted as a scribe, have been a surgical assistant, and have held leadership positions on campus. I understand that I need to take the MCAT, before I can get a more accurate answer, but I want to hear your opinion on what I should do following graduation in May 2017 (at which point, my GPA should be 3.46-3.54 range, dependent on my senior year).
1. Do I do an SMP (EVMS, Georgetown) to strengthen my application to get into an allopathic medical school? I am looking at doing a surgical residency so I would like to stick to allopathic. How much do SMP's truly strengthen your ability to get accepted into medical school? I have so many questions about Georgetown and EVMS, if any of you are in the program, I would love to talk to you individually about it.
2. Due to upward trend, I just send out applications and hope for the best? I know that my GPA is definitely in between the Masters program acceptance as well as medical school acceptance, truly making me a 'tweener' applicant.
I would love all advice and want to go into as much depth as possible.
