I am currently a Senior student-athlete with a 3.2 GPA, recently decided I want to do medical school instead of PA school. I am planning on applying to both DO and MD schools. I cannot apply in the current cycle, so I will be applying in the spring/summer of 2016. My advisor recommended me to do a 1 year masters program to try to make my low GPA not look as bad. Since DO schools do grade replacement, I was thinking about doing an extra semester of undergrad and retaking 2-3 classes I got C's in to help the GPA. If I retook those classes and finish out this year well I can probably have a 3.4-3.5. Would that be more beneficial than doing the masters in biomolecular science? I plan on taking the MCAT in January. Thanks!
