Finally graduated. Only took me 10 years but hey, it's done and over. 28 years old and my first degree is a BS in Natural Science from Pitt.
So I was doing some calculations and turns out I need some way to boost my GPA.
Currently I am at a cGPA of 2.6 with a multitude of retakes. My sGPA is 3.0-3.1 My last MCAT was a 27 and I am retaking in June.
Now there are some courses I cannot retake according to Pitt because I have already graduated and it would affect my degree. And some of these classes are unique to Pitt (EMS courses). So I am stuck with what I have. Where do I go from here?
I can apply to SGU/Ross, both of which have programs like a post-bacc that last one semester and lead right into their MD programs. I was told my admission counselor I am a safe bet for one of those programs. Or I can do a MS in Health Sciences/Communication from a program here in the states. If I can do mostly A work, I could easily get my cGPA up to a 2.8-2.9. Granted these are not science courses but it is really my cGPA that needs the bump more than anything.
Thoughts?
