Hi everyone! This is my first post on this website, I'm in my senior year of college and as things are winding to an end I wanted to get an opinion on the next option for me to reach my dream of getting into medical school.
I basically had a rough start to the beginning of college & straightened out my grades later in my undergraduate career. These are my stats as of my fall semester of senior year:
Current cGPA: 3.45
Current sGPA: 3.00
Bio 1 with Lab: B
Bio 2 with lab: C+
Chemistry 1: B+ ( Lab was a C+)
Chemistry 2: B (Lab was a A-)
Organic Chemistry: C (My school combines both semesters into one)
Orgo chem lab: A-
Physics 1: A- (Lab was a A-)
Physics 2: A (Lab was a A-)
Biochem: B
Pre-Calc: B-
With orgo being combined into one semester, I did not do well in that class. Im planning on retaking pre-calc to boost my sGPA up to a 3.15 before I graduate.
My question is, will a post bacc program help if I decide to take orgo and bio 2 again?
Do you think my chances of med school are still within the realms of reach?
I believe after this semester I could graduate with a cGPA of 3.55-3.6
My extracurricular do include interning and volunteering!
Please let me know of any suggestions post graduating that would help me get into medical school.
I am planning on taking an MCAT next summer
Thank you again!!
