Freshman: 3.32
Sophomore: 3.24
Junior: 3.16
Senior: 2.97
Postbac: 3.65
Overall Science: 3.57
Overall: 3.28
Notice the downward trend. (Even my postbac had a mini downward trend, as I regressed from a 4.0 to a 3.65 towards the end of my postbac.) I have nothing to explain away this downward trend, except as a major character flaw where I would start strong and then lose motivation. Would this be lethal to my medical school chances?
I double majored in Economics and Computer science from a top 30 undergrad, if that matters.
I would say I'm average in all other aspects, (EC's and work experience).
To what degree would a good mcat (high 30's) mask this defect? (I'm consistently getting mid to high 30's on my practice exams.) Would I just be considered another smart person who didn't apply himself?
I also took two years off to explore another career after I finished my postbac. I am now getting back the itch to apply to medical school.
Please be blunt.
