2.53 sGPA at 34 credit hours
3.27 cGPA at 113 credit hours
NC student
Junior in Psychology
Pre-req classes taken: (1 year of general biology, 1 year of general chemistry, 1 advanced level biology, 1 statistics, 1 year of college level mathematics)
Bad grades: 1 F (math during high school; retaken with A), 1 W (biology, technically retaken, but not exact equivalent, but got an A), 1 W (chemistry, taken during high school, retook with a C), several C's (statistics, both chemistries, a few general-ed and major classes)
I also have a handful of psychology courses (as in, with the PSY course code instead of BIOL or MATH) that could technically be BCPM, but it's up to the AMCAS to decided. I didn't include them in the GPA or credit hour for sGPA, but it's nothing below a B
No research experience, no volunteer experience, no clinical experience, nothing useful
Of course, no MCAT
How do I go about med school? Because I'm obviously in a deep hole with very little help. I'm already planning on taking 1-2 years for a gap year. I'm done with my psychology major requirements (only 1-2 classes in undergrad psychology left, but I don't need the classes), so I was planning on using my senior year to do my first set of pre-reqs (orgo, physics, more biology), but I'm not going to do that if it's not worth it.
Had undiagnosed ADHD, depression, and anxiety. Finally been diagnosed with ADHD and anxiety (my depressive symptoms were not apparent enough at the time to be diagnosed, but I definitely had it during my freshman year of college) but awaiting treatment.
