Hi, I plan to apply to a Master of Science program at Drexel COM. There are 3 that interest me- Drexel Pathway to Medical School (DPMS), Biomedical Studies (MBS), and Interdisciplinary Health Sciences (IHS). But there are some things that don't make sense to me or I couldn't find information online.

Am I limited to apply to only one? Can I be considered for other programs even if say I only apply to DPMS? Does Drexel consider you for say MBS or IHS if you don't get in say the DPMS? What should I even pick between these?

Which Pre-med / Pre-health Program Is for Me? - College of Medicine

My stats are: 319 cGPA, 2.79 sGPA, and a MCAT score in the 36th percentile. I had a terrible life situation my first two years in undergrad which forced me to divert my attention to too many issues at once resulting in me having a lower end GPA. However, after my first two years, I consistently would get 3.5-3.6+ semester GPAs raising where I was from a 2.6 cGPA and 2.1 sGPA to what it is now. Additionally, I retook classes and earned higher grades like Biochemistry. So, it was a consistent upwards trend for my last two years.

Thank you so much for your thoughts!

Welcome to the forums.

While I doubt there's a reason to limit yourself to one application, their table should help you align with the preparation you need. If you have questions, ask the program directors.
