I withdrew from SGU as an MS2 due to the mess happening with COVID. Zoom medical school was not for me and I decided to withdraw and start over instead. I realize that I have quite the challenge ahead of me but I desperately need advice. I know I need to retake my MCAT for a better chance and I was considering doing a one-year MS or MA. What else should I do??
Update: So I'm confused. I thought an SMP is the same as an MS/MA (one-year programs that help boost my application and prove to schools that I can handle graduate coursework). Is there a difference I'm unaware of?
Also, I only applied to US schools for one cycle before. I was burnt out from the MCAT and was discouraged from attempting an SMP and a second try by other students who still didn't make it after multiple cycles. That's why I headed to the Caribbean.
