Hi everyone! I'm in a unique situation and could use advice.
I just graduated with a BS; I finished everything with an overall GPA of 2.98. I had an upward trend in junior and senior years (3.43 and 3.94 respectively).
I took the MCAT to standardize the competitiveness of my application and potentially set myself up for post-bacc/SMP; I scored a 507.
I am a married 24 year old living in CA and would rather not drag my family across the country unless I can get the biggest return for my time and financial investment.
Frustratingly, I feel like I am spending a lot of time trying to distance myself from my academic past, despite having bettered myself and my study habits. In my senior year, I completed 18 unit semesters while working 25-30 hours a week to financially provide for my family.
Folks, what would be the best way to convince medical schools that I can handle the academic rigor? What programs should I pursue or look into?
Thanks for reading up until this point!
