I am a long time viewer and a first time poster and am in need of some opinions and advice. After a dismal stint at a very reputable university, where I completed all of my premedical requirements and earned a degree in economics with a cum GPA of 2.5 I participated in biomedical research for 2 years where I was published a few times, one paper where I am first authour. I went on to graduate school which I am about to complete after 2 years. I will earn a master's degree in computational biology and have a Graduate GPA of 3.9. As you can see, a lot of growing up had been done in the process. I am planning on taking the MCAT in the spring and have good, but not great EC's. Assuming I do well on the MCAT will I have a shot at becoming a DO, or is more remedial work required to get my undergrad GPA up? I am 26 years old and feel life catching up to me. Medical school is a dream but I didn't feel that a post-bac program was a good option before entering grad school due to future prospects. What good is post-bac certificate when looking for a job? So, let me now if you guys think my stats stand a chance of making the cut or not.
A sincere thanks to all
