Long time lurker here goin through the start of apps. I'm facing a low GPA (community com in hs when I was a screw off) but a high MCAT score. Dropped out of college years ago, grew up on fishing boats and big mountains, then decided to go back to school.
cGPA 3.41
sGPA 3.25
MCAT 38Q (12 PS, 12 BS, 14 VR)
GPA has been 3.5-3.80 every year since I returned to college and I'm about to graduate. I've had several hundred hours of shadowing, two years working as an EMT, one year volunteering with a rural EMS agency, 6 months in a research lab, and several other volunteer (non-medical) projects. Oregon resident for what that matters. Looking at lower tier schools, but dreaming big. Thoughts? Am I crazy for thinking I'll get in anywhere?
Thanks,
Colin
