REPOST
I'm a junior in college now. I am planning on taking the MCAT in either April or May.
My school GPA is 3.034 ( I know, its low)
I put my grades into a reliable AMCAS GPA calculator and it shows my GPA as 2.97. My science GPA is even lower at 2.73 (brutal)
I have a good, but not great amount of volunteer hours as well.
My GPA has been on a slight, slight incline since the end of my sophomore year. I still have 40 credits to take so that might increase my GPA... BUT the AMCAS will only factor in my grades after this semester if I apply this summer. So, not much of a difference there.
I am going to study my heart out for the MCAT and my question is...
QUESTION- Would a perfect MCAT score give me a chance to get into medical school, or should I just not study this year and and try again next year?
BONUS QUESTION- What are my chances for Caribbean Med Schools like ROSS, AUC, and St Georges?
