Hi,
I would like some input regarding my situation. So I am applying through Atlantic bridge for 2016.
My GPA is 3.65
completed a degree in Nursing.
Haven't written my MCAT yet.
My EC: nurse in acute neurosurgery, and ortho floor, Pediatric complex care rehab, bariatric surgical clinic, IV team in a dental clinic. Co-founder of a NPO/Charity that involves international experience and health. Volunteered at a doctors office and overseas in an environmental group. PSW for 3 years during my nursing degree.
I have or will be getting an EU passport along with my Portuguese citizenship.
I'm not really sure if my stats are competitive for Ireland. Should I write the MCAT? AB stated that there are three schools in Ireland that take student without MCAT stats but are 5 year program. The issue with writing the MCAT is that the nursing program that I completed, didn't allow me to take any prereqs of chem, physics, biochem, etc. It would be new learning for me and I only have 5-6 months left to study for it. Is it enough time?
I am also not sure how competitive the 5 year program are. Anyone have any idea?
I'm just feeling very nervous.
Any input would be appreciated. thanks.
