Hello,
Well, I think I only know tiny bit about how to get ready to getting into medical school. First off, all I know is good GPA above 3.5 or so and pre-reqs (especially good sci GPA), Good MCAT score (honestly I don't know what is considered as good score), and some of extracurriculars, such as volunteer at hospital (emergency room, transporting thing, idk what it is), and shadowing docs and more. I need letter of recommendation from my professors. Research paper (idk what kind of research and how long) and med school does not care what kind of major I study in.
yea I think this is all I know. I would appreciate it if anyone went through in a detail little bit more. Sorry, I don't know much about anything. Plus where can I find these kinds of info? and I know that pre-req only requires calc1 but is it good to take up to like calc2 and 3? and in bio section is it good to take like microbio or something like that (like higher bio classes, but I'm not a bio major)?
sorry for bunch of questions. Hope everyone have great last day of 2010 and great Happy New Year's eve!!
