Hi all,

I'm not sure if this has been asked or not. I'm currently an RRT (1+ years), and I'm considering possibly trying a third time for med school. I got my first B.S in 2004, tried twice to get into med school, didn't get in either time, then ended up in RT school in 2005, and got my 2nd B.S. in 2007 at a totally different school in another state. I was pre-med and had a pre-med advisor at my first school, but it's been 4 years now and I'm in another state.

I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to have some sort of advisor around here. The problem is that I'm not currently taking any classes here nor have I ever taken classes here. I work at a large hospital system associated with a large university. Would be a bad or good idea to contact someone at the university? Or would I have to be an enrolled student here?
 
Better than an advisor would be to get in contact with someone from the admissions office. Set up a meeting and sit down with them. Come prepared with unofficial transcipts and a CV. Ask them what you would have to do to become a competitive candidate at their medical school.
