Hi guys.
So currently, I have just finished my junior year of undergrad. My current but yet horrendous stats are cGPA: 2.75 & sGPA: 2.40
Unfortunately, all the pre-req's I have take that are required for PA school, I have received Cs in.
I really want to become a PA, but I know how hard and...
Hello, I graduated last year with a cgpa:3.01. My science gpa is around 2.77 and I'm predental. My DAT score is 19. My application as a whole is pretty good as I have work experience and volounteer work.
My question is what are my chances in getting accepted to a one year special masters...
I have the ability to graduate with a physics degree in June, and my undergraduate GPA will be around 2.7. I'm looking at various MPH programs to apply to, and most of them have a minimum GPA requirement of 3.0. Some of them however, say they look at the last 90 units (at a quarter system...
Hey everyone,
I wanted to come here and ask for a *thoughtful/meaningful/considerate* response to a 'situation' I am thinking about. So during the first few years of my undergrad career, I had very low self-efficacy. As a result, my grades were average and during one specific semester, quite...
This is my first time using this website, please excuse me if I post this in the incorrect area.
I was wondering how hard will it be to recover from my GPA mistakes... and if there is any slight chance of getting accepted to med-school. Right now I'm thinking of majoring in french (I'm fluent...
I'm a junior at michigan state Uni, (grades are calculated by 4(A), 3.5(AB), 3(B), 2.5(BC), etc).
Basically, after my terrible freshman year (that I got a 2.8), I've been on an upward trend towards the 3.31c GPA that I have now (I know, still bad but I was hoping I could raise it to a 3.4~ish...
I'm making an MD school list that might be friendly to underdogs... I have made a DO list already because I'm more knowledgeable about their admissions. I spent the other day going through the new MSAR and selecting every school that has no minimum GPA, and/or low posted minimum GPA. I took the...
My friend who's about to graduate with a bachelors had a very rough beginning of undergrad for personal and financial reasons. She had extremely challenging childhood and teenage years which included being homeless during high school and going between a few foster homes. The difficulties she...
Hello Everyone,

I'm currently on 2 waitlists hoping to hear back after traffic day. I'd appreciate advice on plans moving forward and my chances of getting off the waitlist.
What is your advice moving forward/chances of acceptance next month?
I'm a junior at Beverly Hills High and my gpa is looking pretty iffy. In the low 3 range on a 4.0 scale (unweighted). My main problem is that I've always stretched myself too thin and taken a lot of honors/AP courses. Last year I got a 4 on AP Biology. This year I am taking AP Lang and AP US...

Hello all,
I am a senior graduating this semester and I'm planning to take a gap year (or two) to make myself more competitive. My plan is to apply to both MD and DO.

I am currently an undergrad bio major at Rutgers University and just calculated my science GPA and it is low as hell! My overall GPA is a 3.1 but my science GPA is a 2.3! I failed Orgo twice before finally passing with a C. I've basically gotten C's in nearly all of my science classes except...

So I went to UNTHSC Post Bacc program. I'm about to graduate but I didn't do well in this program. I got alot of B's. So my overall GPA is 3.22. I did poorly in my undergrad, and I wanted to use this opportunity to increase my GPA, but clearly that didn't work out. Got so many 88 or 89s in...
In these videos I share how I was able to get my application reviewed even with a low GPA, get an interview and finally prepare for my first week of class. Besides going to PT school I spend my days helping prePT students, especially people with low GPA like I was. You have any questions, shoot...
My GPA is rough, it's a 3.2 and I have to take a few more prereq's which could get it into the 3.3-3.4 level but that's still below average. My GRE score is my strong suit as I got a 322. I had 3 jobs and worked 60+ hours/week for the last 2.5 years of college while going to school full time...

Hey everyone!
I've done a post like this before but not with much response. I need some success stories to see where I stand and what I need to do to improve my application. I know adcoms look at the whole package but need an idea. If you can answer the following questions that would be...
Hello,
I am a non traditional student. This past fall I returned to school in hopes of one day attending medical school. However, 11-12 years ago I received Ds, Cs, and an F my first semester playing college basketball. The following semester, I received all Fs instead of Ws for an entire...
Hi everyone, I'm going to be graduating with a BS in Physics from state university this spring, and I'm interested in going to medical school. I have a low overall GPA, ~2.7, and an even lower core GPA, ~2.5. I haven't taken the MCAT yet, but I have begun doing some light studying. I have two...
Hi all, I currently have a sub 3.0 gpa (2.8s 3.0c) with retakes. Obviously, with DO grade replacement gone, I think my only option is to do an SMP or Masters program. However, I haven't been able to find quality programs that accept lower than a 3.0. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in...
Hi everyone, new poster, I've read the rules but do bear with me if I'm missing something.
I applied to this application cycle late. I know, I know, around these forums it's almost unanimously agreed that applying late is essentially application suicide, but I was told by my undergraduate...
Hi!
I have completed my bachelors of science in biology and didn't do so well the first time around (my sister passed away and I had a difficult time focusing on school, and my grades didn't end up being a priority - looking back, I probably should have taken some time off, but I didn't.)...
I'm sorry if this gets long but I want you to get an accurate description of my situation and hopefully get some meaningful feedback and tips.
I went through a lot of personal issues during my Freshman and Sophomore year and consequently did poorly and had to retake classes in order to move on...
So I may be in a position where I fail out of nursing school. What are my chances of getting into a medical school with a high science GPA, high mcat score, but low overall GPA??
My friends in medical school are looking at my coursework and have said that my material is more difficult in some...
I am in my 4th year of undergrad and I'm still Pre Vet. When ilI tell people that I am still Pre Vet, they have a questionable look in their eyes, like I shouldn't be pre vet. Why? Well, I've retaken the entire gen chem series, have recieved mediocre grades in major classes, and I am...
Hello!
So I graduated undergrad a couple of years ago with some rough stats - 2.92 oGPA and 2.64 sGPA with a downward trend that ended much like the Titanic - long story short: picked up one too many part-time jobs during my last two years and I was very depressed as a result, but adcoms...
