I thought I would start a very self-centered thread because I just walked out of a meeting with a pre-med advisor. Last year she was singing my praises but after getting rejected from an MD/PhD program and looking more closely at my GPA she is suggesting that I go back to school... And I need some perspective from those of you in the trenches. I am trying to decide whether to go the MPH route though it would sting financially for me and my family, but I am willing to do it if my application is the non-starter that my pre-med advisor seemed to intimate.
One ADCOM at this program brought up the possibility of MPH because of my low GPA. Welcome your thoughts:
3.38 Science (Chem Major)
3.21 Overall
33R 2003 August MCAT
Masters in Engineering
15 Engineering publications
4 years in Semiconductor Industry
1 Yr recent Clinical Volunteer Exp. 1 yr a while back
NCAA Runner, Team Captain (way back when)
Some other minor stuff
