Here's my situation. I want to go to med school(obviously). But I have two years preferably to do it. I wanted to go into physical therapy at first, but there's something about being a physician that makes me really feel there's a better purpose for me in life. So, I have a lot of General prereques done, but I still need to take a full year of physics, general biology, and organic chem/biochem(if needed). Also haven't taken the mcat yet. So, here's my plan. I'll take physics and bio this coming year. I understand the mcat has some organic on it but barely any. So I'll take that in the spring of 2017. Then take organic chem my last year along with getting some shadowing in the field done as well. I currently have a 3.4 GPA overall. It's lower due to a bad freshman year. But I'm a straight A student now. So, with that being said, assuming all my other classes go well the GPA should rise. If I were to apply right after I took the mcat and performed well in organic the final year of undergrad, do I have a decent shot at being accepted? Aka, do I have a solid plan at least? I am new at this, so any thoughts are very much appreciated. Thanks
