I'll most likely be graduating in the 3.45 range soon. I'm not applying for Medical School until next year. I haven't taken my MCAT yet, but when I do it will be with the utmost preparation.
I will be taking some summer courses to boost the GPA, and I am considering taking some courses next Fall as well. I don't want to do a Master's program, because that GPA will count separately.
Is it worth it to take more courses post-graduation for the GPA boost? I go to a private college which means that it will be expensive, but since AMCAS considers classes taken at any college, I will look into courses at public institutions.
I'm not entirely sure on whether or not Med Schools cut off applicants with GPA's below a certain threshold, but I would like to be at least in the 3.5 range. How does this sound?
As for Medical Schools, I'll go wherever I get in but preferably a school in New York.
