Gap year options:
1.) Take Grad course as a non-matriculated grad. It is a grad Pathology course and carries 4 credits. The course is for 2nd year dental students. My concern is that this is for 2nd year students. I was a biomed UG, but am still worried that the work may be too advanced.
2.) Work full-time. I would work in a healthcare related job.
3.)Grad course/work part-time. I am not sure if this is possible. (any insight to this option would be appreciated.
Which of these options would "look better" or enhance my application? I am unsure about the grad work's worth due to the fact that I am applying now. I am worried that schools won't even see the grad grades or they may postpone my application until I have a grade. I DO NOT want my app to be reviewed late in the cycle due to my lower stats.
Stats:
3.43 cGPA 3.3 sGPA Strong upward trend Jun/Sen year. I did not dip below 3.6 for those four semesters. These semesters also included many upper-level science courses.
