Hi everyone!
Here is the problem (are the problems): I have a very low GPA and a relatively okay DAT (isn't good enough to make up for my GPA). My sophomore year was a complete disaster, but I managed to get my GPA higher after that. I have about 300 hours of shadowing, but those are all in a Chinese public hospital. I did find another opportunity in which I will start shadowing a dentist here in the US this May.
I sent out my application in October 2013 and failed completely (no interviews, 4 rejections). When I check online for some post-bac programs, most of them do not even consider international students. Should I go for a non-degree post-bac program instead? How many years should I do? Or should I finish a Master's degree in Biology?
