Hi everyone- I need some advice.
Here are my stats:
1. 1994-1999 Undergrad UCLA: 2.8 cum; 2.6 science
2. 2000-2002 Graduate UCLA: 3.9 cum; 3.9 science
3. 2003-2004 post-bac: 2.5 cum; 2.5 cum science. My sister passed away in the middle of the school year. I should have dropped the program but decided to persist and didn't do well during the second semester. So I did not receive my degree here.
4. MCAT 2003: V: 10 P: 9 Bio: 12
5. Six years of Research; one paper/three abstracts published
6. Five years of active healthcare volunteer
I know last year academic performance was a bust since I did not even give it 50% effort. I know I would have easily earned a 4.0 gpa. I really regretted that I didn't stop the program and take some time for myself. Now, I feel that
I backtracked years of graduate work that I accomplished to redeem myself.
Please let me know if you have any advices on what I should do for next year. Just to let you know, I have considerable reflections over the years and do not want to choose another profession except medicine.
I am applying to these schools for Fall 2005. Are these good choices, any additions or deletions considering my stats? Thanks for your help.
