whats up... I just got my August MCAT scores and they were as good as I wanted but I am not disappointed by any means. I have an 11V 11P 11B and an S. I am kind of amazed by myself with the verbal stuff since I am a neuroscience major and I hate english classes.
Anyways, my blaring weakness is my 3.1 GPA, I go to Emory University, a pretty decent institution...I have some research that im doing right now, worked for the CDC, various other EC's...I am definatley taking the year off after I graduate to do something to make myself more appetizing to adcoms. What do yall think. a post bacc program like harvard, penns or gtowns? maybe an NIH fellowship which would be nice esp since there is a 20 grand stipend. (im on loans from here on out). I think I would have a good shot at my state school, but I'm from Kansas, and I do not want to return to Kansas. So im shootin for the private schools (gtown, tulane, drexel,,,) or University of Hawaii ( I have extensive roots there). What suggestions do you have esp. those who have been in my situation.... I KNOW alot of you messed around freshman year like I did (gpa<2.0)
thanks
