I'm a Junior right now but I'll graduate next Winter (one semester early). By the time I graduate I'll have a 2.9 because I had a bad 2nd year of college because some close family members passed away and I just went through a lot of emotional crap and it ruined my GPA. I also failed organic and retook it and got a C so I'm worried about that and my other science grades arnt too great either. But its been my dream to be a doctor since I was about 4 and now I'm worried/angry that I might not stand a chance anywhere (US or Caribbean). I havn't taken the MCATS but I will once I graduate. I'm also looking at MPH and MHA programs to apply to but Med school is always going to be on my mind. I have good ECs (research, volunteer work in the US and abroad, awards and honors outside of school, club/organization member) and should get decent recomendations.
Should I do a Post bacc and try to bring my GPA up? or will it not matter considering I'm a health sci major? Should I retake some of the science courses at other schools? (ie orgo,physics and microbio)
Any sound advice would be greatly appreciated
