Hi,
I'm considering doing a masters program before applying to med school because my undergrad GPA is low, and I was wondering if I did a masters, would the med school admissions committees look at the GPA from that over my undergrad GPA? And if not, will the masters improve my chances of getting into med school or would my time be better spent doing something else? Also, does it matter where you do your masters, as in doing it at a recognized school versus a less-recognized school which is cheaper?
