I have a unique situation. I am 27 years old, served 4 1/2 years in the US Army and am now back in school and trying to go to med school. At my current university I have a 3.67 Science GPA and 3.49 Overall GPA. I scored a 25Q on the MCAT and am now waiting to hear back. Only problem is... I went to school before the Army and messed around. I had about a 2.2 GPA there. So, my AMCAS GPA comes out to a 2.9. I have started hearing back from schools saying that they look at the AMCAS verified GPA.
My question is, do I even have a chance with my GPA. Will schools even look at my entire application? My grades from 7+ years prior seem to be causing more problems than I was hoping for. I feel that if my entire application is looked at, after my GPA, then I have strong credentials. Just looking for an honest opinion. Thanks.
