I was homeless/in foster care when I was in high school. My transition to college life was a struggle and because of it, my first two years in undergrad I had a very low gpa
the second two years I brought it up, but my gpa is far from competitive.
I have research experience and publications and hundreds of hours of patient experience and community outreach, but I don't know whether or not my gpa will prevent medical acceptance.
Should I focus on getting a masters or will the unique circumstance of my upbringing make up for the low gpa?
Thoughts!
