i will graduate with a BS in biology @ ogpa 2.5. i have been doing research for a professor for 2 years and will ask him for a paying position in his lab. hopefully i can get my act together, do very well on GRES and get into graduate school.
if by doing extremely well in grad school (3.5+), and applying to pharm school after ... will they look more heavily at my undergrad or grad grades? i plan on getting a research article published with my name in it.
basically i would like to apply to pharm school asap, but find it highly unlikely to get in with a 2.5. i feel that by doing a masters, i will gain more experience and be able to show i'm a much better/changed student.
why a low gpa? didn't have a sense of direction and never thought of myself doing post-bac schooling. the real world was a nice swift kick in the balls.
edit: there was one quarter where i basically didn't take any finals, so i received F's in all those courses. yea my undergrad grades do not reflect very well
