Do you think I have a chance?

[jaykav07]

Right now I'm taking the MCAT in April, and my GPA at the end of the semester will be 3.2, and that's graduation.

My EC's aren't spectacular but they aren't horrible.

I was an officer in 2 clubs for 2 years and did research for a club for 2 years. I TA'd some and have volunteer hours.

I mean I think I would need to do an SMP for that, but my MCAT score won't be back on time to apply, probably to either a DO school either...

do any research for the school?

do you have any clinical experience?

you haven't really provided much except your GPA. Be a little bit more specific.

No, only through the club

Do you have a recent upward science grade trend? Have you retaken any classes to take advantage of the DO grade replacement policy to boost your GPAs? Have you considered taking another year to improve your GPA?

On your medical school application you'll be required to list the total hours, the number of hours per week, the start date, the end date, and a description of your activities. Obviously we're not asking for that detailed but it'll help us evaluate your situation. your EC's are not an insignificant thing.

Are you going for MD or DO, you have next to no chance at MD unless you are a URM. DO, you have a chance with an upward trend and a good MCAT score.
