So I have a relatively low GPA (both science and cumulative) but an extremely high MCAT.
I've also done LOTS of clinical work and community service, but absolutely NO research.
There's a bunch of other stuff like a part-time job and other non-medically related organizations that I am part of, but I'm not completely sure where I fall in terms of which schools to apply to.
I'm currently a fourth year Public Health and Microbial Biology double major at UC Berkeley.
I'm planning to apply next cycle. I'm also trying to figure out what I should do for the gap year. Is my GPA low enough to warrant a postbach program? Should I find a job?
Thanks!
