Hi all -
I have a low undergraduate GPA at 3.3 and my science GPA from that portion is probably 3.0.
I took a few years off, worked, traveled and returned to school. Now my GPA is 3.94. This is from 3 yrs of pretty much full time science classes while working as a TA and tutor more than 20 hours a week. I also have participated in independent research (including presenting at a few poster abstract conferences) and started a prescription assistance program at a local free clinic.
I have a few scholarship awards and shadowing experience.
I got a 33Q on the MCAT.
I am an Oregon resident and am interested in OHSU, Rush, Rosalind Franklin, and University of Illinois.
My ideal would be MD/PhD, but I would be into just MD as well.
Thoughts? What are my chances at these schools?
Any help would be appreciated.
Also any suggestions for further places to apply.
Thank you!
