Hi,
I am a 33 year old African American female. I graduated from Penn State 12 years ago. My overall GPA was a 2.80, 3.10 in science. I want to pursue my career in medicine. My stats are not that great. I thought about Allo-Med, however, I don't stand a chance. I decided since D.O's are the wave of the future, that I should take a crack at it.
With the notion that my stats are low. I took the MCATS in 1986 and plan to retake them in April. I thought about some Caribbean schools, but I'm not sure. Does anyone have any ideas?
Should I even consider applying? If so, where? Does my being a minority student help? What schools have a greater enrollment of student with my profile.
How can I beef up my resume?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
