low gpa

Hello, I'm 22, at 19 I dropped out of college my first year. Well, kicked out really because of poor grades. Won't go into detail, since everyone has different bumps in their roads of life. I ended up with an overall GPA of 1.3, the classes I failed were law/philosophy/math related, so you...

Hello all, I've been reading tips and stats from this forum for quite a while but have never posted. Now that I will be done with my undergrad in July, I am asking for any and all advice. I know my Cumulative GPA is extremely low (freshman yr) but im hoping that other parts of my application...

Right now I have a GPA of 2.74. I screw up during my freshmen and sophomore year of undergraduate. I raised my 2.0 gpa to a 2.74, but it still not good enough for medical school or post-bac programs. I had some difficult time during my first two years, but I tried to get my **** together. I did...

I posted this advice to another thread, but I thought it would be good to start a new thread for people on the same boat as I. You can become a PT it if you just have the right game plan and mindset. I tell you this because I'm on the exact same path. Graduated last year with a GPA of 2.56...

Disclaimer: I know a ton of these exist and I truly apologize. I've read so many but I'm still stuck. I am a recent graduate and I completed my undergrad Biology degree with a cumGPA of 2.75 and a sGPA of 2.7. Clearly my GPA is awful and I attribute it to laziness along with culture shock. I...

What's up guys? I'm looking for advice on my application date. I'm currently set for one gap year, but my advisor recommended I take two, which I'm obviously reluctant to do. My cum gpa is 3.33, science gpa 3.14 with a upward trend. I took my DAT Nov. 14 and got DAT: AA-23 TS-23 I have about 20...

Hey everyone! I wanted to know if anyone is currently attending or has attended in RFU's postbacc program. I am a senior graduating in May with a gpa of 3.0. I started my freshman year with a 2.4 so I have had a steady incline since then. Last semester I racked up a 3.6 for my semester gpa. I...

Hello SDN! I am a college senior planning on taking two gap years before entering medical school. I had been hoping to spend my first gap year gaining clinical experience by working as a scribe, however looking at the MSAR it appears that my stats are too low to be competitive at most schools...

Are there any Postbacs/SMPs (D.O. with good linkage) that would even look at a student with a 2.72cGPA/2.78sGPA with a STRONG upward trend (+3.8 GPA) in the last 70 credit hours and a solid MCAT score (plan on testing in the Fall)? I did so poorly in my early years that even with my academic...

Because my GPA from 1999 to 2001 is still haunting me. After dropping out with 40 credits of nearly pure Cs, including most of the basic sciences required for medical school, I went back to school, completed two bachelors degrees with about 3.78 GPA, and a masters in biochem with 3.83 GPA. But...

Hello SDN members! A little background: I am currently beginning my final semester at a state university pursuing an "informal" style post-bacc where I simply take upper division biology courses that I have never taken before as well as repeating some pre-med pre-reqs that I didn't do so well...

Hey guys! I'm currently a sophomore in college and had some doubts on when to take the MCAT. My pre-health adviser told me to start studying over winter break my junior year, then take an intensive course (i.e Kaplan or Princeton) over summer break and take it in July/August. She failed to...
