Hi Everyone-
Need some advice.....I'm a 30 year old, long term goal of becoming a physician but a father with wife and beautiful young son which of course take priority. Live just took hold after college.
Currently live in TX and obviously prefer TX allopathic schools. Can someone give me a realistic assessment of my stats? Trying to determine if I should invest any time, money, effort.
Undergrad GPA: 3.22 (BS Chem Eng, Honors Program at one of the New England State Universities, i.e. UMASS, UCONN, UNH, UVM)
Grad GPA (MBA): 3.7
BCPM GPA: 3.46
Science GPA: 3.26 (driven down engineering classes, no C's just a lot of B's, some B+'s and some A's).
For anyone that's an engineer, you can relate, it's not easy and probably comparable to MD school in intensity (well probably not but a good approximation I would bet).
So what do you think? Do I get points for being an engineer as I've heard or is this a crock? Also, how about making it through cum laude in the Honors Program? How about Grad GPA?
Need an honest assessment as I don't want to spin my wheels chasing my dreams.
Thanks
