Hi
I was wondering if anyone could help me answer this question.
I have a graduate degree in finance and professional work experience. my undergraduate gpa is very low 2.6 if you include repeat courses.
I am wondering if it is possible to do a post-bac and if this is a good idea? If I did well in the post -bac would I have good odds?
thanks. Do you have any recommendations of programs I should look into?
 
1. Retake all F/D/C classes and get A's.
2. Take all med school pre-reqs and slay them.
3. Do well on MCAT.
4. Get clinical exposure.
5. Volunteer.
6. ???
7. Profit!
 
Yes and yes. It can be a formal program or DIY.
