.I'm 29 yrs old and looking to finally begin my med school journey. I have an undergrad degree in Bio with a cum GPA of 3.36, never figured my science GPA. I performed fairly well in my science courses, except for a C/D in OrgI/OrgII and a C in Phy II, and finished strong with A's in Biochemistry, Immunology, and Physiology. As a result of my lackluster performance in Org Chem and plain burnout, I didn't even attempt the MCAT, graduated and, like others, entered the workforce.
After several years of working, I'm ready to fulfill my initial goal. Can I still be a competitive applicant if I strengthen my bad grades and gain volunteer and hospital work experience?
If so, is a post-bacc my best option? I live in Texas and I could not find any formal post-bacc programs. I'd like to stay here for residency purposes and because of the number of state schools..
