So, my situation is thus:
cGPA: 2.999 (2.56 undergrad/3.51 post-bacc)
sGPA: 3.02
MCAT: 28Q
My dilemma:
enroll in a thesis-based master's with only 12 credits of courses (2 yrs long)
OR
take more undergrad courses for 1-2 yrs and then apply for admission
OR
Bite the bullet and apply for 2012, since 2011 is out the question now given the lateness in the cycle and my lack of competiveness
I've done a preliminary search on SDN about the topic, but it seems that it hasn't been discussed on the DO forum. I'll do a more exhaustive search when I get home, after work. But I just wanted to see if I could get some responses by the time I get back.
The pinch:
I've already done ~215 credits worth of undergrad courses, so adding another 60 credits of classes @ 3.7 GPA would give me a grand total of ~3.16 sCGPA/cGPA, each.
Also (unfortunately) my first undergrad institution will not allow me to re-do any courses due to my superior (2.56) GPA the first go-around, so an*l retentive!
So, what would you do in my situation?
