Long time viewer of the threads first time poster. I've been interested in public health for a long time and want to apply for fall 2010...I'm just nervous as to if I'm going to have a shot anywhere.
Graduated last year with a degree in biology did a lot of community service in college and lots of leadership...one semester of HIV research. Since graduation I've worked as a program manager with an NGO in kenya promoting HIV awareness in rural villages (1 year) this next year I'll be an office assistant in a women and children homeless center.
GPA 2.9 Don't expect the GRE to be too high either unfortunately maybe the 1100-1200 range.
I'll have strong letters of rec from profs and the ngo. Want to go in to maternal and child health/international health.
My big question...Do I have a chance of getting in ANYWHERE?
In an ideal world I would like to go to GWU, Columbia, NYU but realistically looking more at SDSU, LLU, etc...
