Hello,
I am having a bit of trouble with my studies. I will be a second semester sophomore in the fall, but i am having so much trouble with my GPA. I have 36 credit hours now with a 2.79 GPA. I take my finals next week and feel as if my GPA will drop to a 2.5. I know I can still bring it up to a 3.5, but I also know that will be very hard to do for me. I do plan on applying to mainly D.O. programs, with a few M.D. programs in mind as well. I will also be graduating a year late in 2021, instead of 2020 to try and boost my GPA by taking less classes a semester. I have a lot of clinical experience and volunteer hours. I will be studying abroad and I was in the military for two years. I will also have a minor in chemistry and criminology. What I am trying to ask is what can I possibly do to make my self stand out and get accepted into med school if I have a low GPA (3.0-3.3).
