I am currently in my spring semester of sophomore year. Ochem II is killing me. Anyway, I had a rough start freshman year, got a C in calculus.
I go to UT- so we do the plus/minus system. But apparently Texas medschools disregard it and recalculate your GPA.
Freshman year (fall)=2.76 (bummer, i know)
Freshman year (spring)= 3.52, but converting A- to A then 3.79
Sophomore year (fall)= 3.56 but converting A- to A then 3.6
and my predicted gpa for this semester is going to be 3.58
So overall my gpa is around a 3.4ish
I'm planning on taking the MCAT this summer.
I am president of an organization I started/founded at UT called Out Against Abuse. I have shadowed a doctor for over 75 hours and am going to go back there summer. I am currently researching in a lab. I have work experience--nothing science related. I need to volunteer more, but I'm planning on going to volunteer at a third world country in December.
I know it is hard to gauge, but what are my chances? I really want to go to UTSA!
Thank you so much in advance for your time!
