Hi All,
First off Id like to start with a few things about myself:
I have a bachelors degree from another country from about 7 years ago; I got accepted into one of the Ivy League schools, hoping to study to ultimately attend medical school. Because my current bachelors degree is from a non-US school, I was advised on getting a second degree instead of doing a post back program Taking that advice, I am going through a full program at the school with the goal of earning a bachelors degree.
My GPA is around 3.0 and I have a couple of concerns/questions: should I continue studying in this school and risk having a low average GPA (around 3.0) or should I transfer to school that is a bit more easier, where hopefully my GPA would be higher? Trying to understand what type of an emphasis/weight the type of school one attends vs. the GPA they receive plays in the application process for medical schools.
Thank you in advance for your advice!!!
