Hey all,

Hey all,

I'm in the middle of putting my application and just wanted some input on what I should do for next year.
This summer, I will be graduating with a BS in Biology.
I have a 3.35 GPA right now, but that is without this semesters grades and the 3 summer class grades I will receive.
I think I will end up with a 3.4 GPA overall and a 3.3 science GPA.
I took the DAT in feb and got a 21AA/21TS/19PAT.

I have a couple of extracurricular, I have TA'ed for physics, orgo, and bio lab, and some shadowing under my belt.

No research, no summer trips, nothing extraordinary.

I am a NY resident.
heerrreess the big question....

Should I take classes next year to raise my GPA????
Like be a full time student? or should I work to make money?

Im applying to 20+ schools most probably but I feel like my stats are lacking (gpa and extracurric wise)...

Any advice?😳

Where are you trying to apply? I think with your stats you have a pretty good shot at some schools. Definitely call the admissions office if you have doubts on what to do. Try to do some research and continue to do shadowing/volunteering to show your interest and determination. Good luck!
