For those accepted to AUA, what was your GPA? I want to apply and am curious to see how my gpa ranks compared to those accepted. Also have any of you been accepted to the bridge to md program or any other program before attending AUA? thanks!

According to http://www.princetonreview.com/schools/1041889/med/american-university-antigua-aua-college-medicine the average undergrad GPA is 3.20. I don't know anything about the bridge program or anything. Why do you want to attend AUA if you don't mind me asking

i didnt really care much for school during my undergrad so my gpa is not that great. Im currently in a postbacc program to improve my gpa, but in order to get it to a competitive number for US schools seems impossible since the more classes I take, the smaller the affect each grade has on my GPA. I was thinking of doing a masters program but even then theres no guarantee and i dont want to keep waiting for a new cycle to reapply. I just want to start my life.

What exactly is your post-bacc GPA? Not including your undergrad GPA. Do not matriculate to the Caribbean, your chances of becoming a licensed physician in the US via that pat are poor

Not if you retake courses and use AACOMAS's policy.

Please define your science GPA, and your cumulative GPA. Why don't you consider DO? What was your MCAT score? Don't settle for the Caribbean. As mentioned before, it will be extremely difficult becoming a licensed physician from the Caribbean.
