I just applied to to medical school this year and unfortunately did not get in. I applied late in the process and my GPA is lacking, its a 3.15 (but my MCAT is pretty good). I know that I need to boost my GPA to be considered competitive, and I was planning on taking some upper division bio classes to raise my uGPA. However, one of the medical schools I applied to gave my application to their school of public health and I was accepted. I have always been interested in public health; my ideal education would be a M.D and a MS in public health, but my priority is medical school. I have read somewhere that some med schools don't take graduate work into consideration. Is this true, and if so about how many schools have this attitude/opinion. Overall, I would like to get a MS in PH, but would it make me more competitive ? Please help I don't know what to do!!!
