I'm not sure if I'm posting this on the right place, but it looks like I may not get out of this cycle with an acceptance. It sucks, but really not much I can do at this point, so I'm preparing for the worst.
I think a lot of it has to do with my below average sGPA (3.17, cGPA is 3.41). I've looked at a handful of master's programs with DO affiliations, as well as a couple of those with MD affiliations. I know retaking a couple of classes is way cheaper, but I really want to go back to an academic setting and I think it'd help me tremendously.
How many programs should one apply for? Is it like medical school where applying to 15 schools is the norm, or like undergrad, where you can get away with applying for 5 schools? I'm not sure how the application process works for these things, so I'd appreciate comments, especially from those who have been there, done that 🙂
