Hi everyone,
Quick background info: I'm currently a 6th semester (junior) biology major at penn state. Right now I'm sitting on a 3.12 overall GPA and a 3.06 science GPA. I'm also taking a kaplan prep course for the MCATs, and have been hitting about a 26/27 on my first few full lengths- taking them on May 31st. I just found out that I got into my summer organic chem lab, but it's too late to take up a hospital internship at this point for the summer. While I accept that MD school at this point is a long shot, I'd obviously still like to try for it, although I'm not against DO or podiatry. So, my question is where do I go from here? I know that I've got to bring up the GPA and MCATs, but is there anything more I can or should do over the summer? Any and all input would be great.
