Dear everyone,
Please Help!!
I am an international student from HK currently studying in an university in the US. I'm about to finish my undergraduate degree in Biochem in the coming december. Over my undergraduate years, I found out what I really wanted to do is actually MEDICINE. Therefore, I am very interested to apply to the medical programs in HKU and CUHK upon my graduation. However, here comes the problem that my academic record is not that good at all.
My status is :
GPA 3.6 in a 1st tier University
TOEFL 267
GRE verbal 390/ math 780
experience: 2 years of research experience on medical microbiology. Currently a student hourly research assistant in a med micro lab. However, no volunteer record or record of working in a hospital.
Should I try to apply anyway or should I do a master and get a better GPA and some volunteer experience before I apply?
Do anyone of you know someone that was admitted to the med sch of CUHK and HKU as a degree holder applicant, what is his/her statistic?
I will be very appreciated if anyone would give me any advise on this!!! THX
