The GPA is too low. A high MCAT can make up for a low GPA like 3.2 or even 3.0 oftentimes, but a 2.7 is too low. It needs to be fixed.

I've been accepted to a MS in Bio program but am questioning if I would be better off doing a non-trad post-bac. In my mind I am thinking of something in the neighborhood of 24-30 units (3.8+). Would this show adcoms that I have the commitment for the long-haul and have changed from my younger ways? Or would more than 30 units need to be done?
They think smart enough to do well but too lazy or uncommitted to actually do it long term. Reject.
Looks like I am not in a good boat. I'll admit...when I was in undergrad I didn't care about my grades. I didn't think I would actually want to use my degree for anything. I solely looked at it as a way to get higher pay. But now that I am working in a residency department (research assistant) I have really come to love the profession. I wish I would've known this about myself earlier :/
Lazy but smart, OR had a disaster in FR and SO years but then started to recover.
Other than that, we can't say anything
