I am applying next cycle…
My AMCAS cGPA will be 3.84 and sGPA will be 3.74. If AMCAS accepts my Brain and Behaviour + Physiological PSYC classes as BCPM, my sGPA will increase to 3.76.
I am set to graduate in two weeks with honors and a 3.9+ GPA from my state university. As of now, I really don't have a reason to graduate a semester early other than I really want to and don't see a point in paying more money for more undergrad classes.
However, do you guys think it would benefit me to raise my GPA and take more science classes next spring? Should I postpone graduation? Should I take non-degree courses? Is this all necessary for me?
Or should I forget about more coursework and GPA stuff and focus on extra-curriculars, putting together a good app, and scoring high on the MCAT?? FYI, I'd like to stand a chance at some of the mid and top tiers despite my average-ranked university!
