Hi everyone. I'm trying to decide which path to take... I'd love to do MD/PhD and be a physician scientist, but I've heard that MSTP programs are much more selective than normal med school admissions (which I'm worried enough about).
I did research at UC Berkeley for 2 years, graduated last year, and I've been researching at a biomedical institute ever since. I have a 3.45 GPA, MCB major, and I just took the MCAT, probably got a 32-34.
Do I have a hope? Is consistent interest in research enough to get me in? Are there any other people out there who have gotten into an MD/PhD program with less than perfect digits?? It would help me greatly if you could post your GPA and MCAT. If everyone comes back with 13-14-15 and 3.97, I'll know this isn't the bulletin board for me
Thanks in advance, all
