Hi 😉
I was wondering if there were any success stories of students who were liberal arts majors, with low GPAs, who enrolled in a post-bacc program and were actually accepted into a medical school. I know that most of those who enter post-baccs are a bit older, but what do adcoms think of students who just graduated from college and enrolled into a post bacc? ONE last question. Has anyone taken bio,ogranic chem, and physics all at once and how was that experience like? Is it possible to get As??? ok,ok, so it was two questions :laugh:

I was a liberal arts major and got accepted. My GPA was high though. I worked for about a year after college before I went back to do the post-bac work. But I have heard of people just going straight from college to post-bac. It is possible to get As while taking all of the classes at once. I did it. It is just a very different type of studying than in the liberal arts classes. You have to learn to manage your time differently since it is a lot of memorization, labs, and problems sets, as opposed to reading and writing long papers. But it was doable. Good luck 🙂
