BS in Athletic Training
2.82 sGPA
2.91 sGPA with cancelling out retakes
3.35 mathGPA
2.99 cGPA

1090 GRE

Taking 14 credit hours this spring of all science classes,Organic 2 and Physics 2 are two of them, I foresee that semester being a probable GPA booster
Taking the MCAT in March, Got a 19 on the AAMC free practice test without starting studying

So my problem is this: Should I apply now with my low GPA or should I wait til after I get my GPA boost? If my GPA is too low to get an interview now and it raised significantly in the spring could I get an interview then?

Assuming I get an average (22-23) MCAT, how good are my chances of being accepted?

Any information or advice would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

I think you might get an invitation somewhere if you can score a 25+

Fairly certain the schools don't cancel out retakes. I think all credit hours get applied to your GPA.

I would apply now and take the MCAT in January. Your chances *should* be better the earlier you apply and I would think you would get at least a few interviews without the MCAT. Some schools won't touch you until they have the scores though. Good Luck!
