Hey all,
I am a student athlete at the college of william and mary where I study kinesiology with a concentration in pre med as well as compete on the football team. My gpa is a 2.9c and 2.83s with only 3 semesters left in my college career. Due to football being a year round full time job I don't have any clinical experience. I have recently spoken to our schools premed advisor who suggested doing a post bacc or masters and gaining clinical experience. My question is will a DO or podiatry program take into consideration the difficulty of my undergrad as well as participating in football. Secondly, is clinical experience a deal breaker in admissions? Finally, will a DO or podiatry consider me without doing a post bacc? I have not taken the mcat yet.
