From what I hear, older students are generally stronger candidates than third year undergrads, is that true?

i'm not sure about the whole older candidate thing...but judging from your stats i believe you are a competative candidate

your prepharm gpa is what will get you interviews (did for me)

I graduated from a Business school in 2002 and have been working in the financial industry for 6 years. I also studied in Italy for 1 yr back in 2000.

I graduated with a 3.0 GPA but I have a 3.6 for my pre req's for NOVA. My science GPA is currently a 2.8 but I still need to take CHM 2, and Org. Chem's 1 & 2.

From what I hear, older students are generally stronger candidates than third year undergrads, is that true? In general, would you think I'm a strong candidate. I'm sweating thinking about competing against some of you younger students.

Anyone in their late 20's or older with some feedback?

Thanks

Apply early! This holds true at every school but especially Nova. This school receives a ton of applications each year. Also, they will not consider you until after you complete Organic I. Make sure you have a competitive PCAT score as well.

I am in my mid 20s, fresh out of college with a Bachelor of Science. I recently interviewed at Nova. Having a degree will give you an edge over undergraduates with similar stats. At your interview, make sure you can explain why you want to switch careers. Good luck!
