Hello, everyone. I am exploring my chances of medical school. Currently my GPA is a 3.8 for a major in chemistry. I got a B in , Calc I with analytical geometry and Statistics. However I did get an A (97) for Calc II. I have so far taken Chemistry I, Organic chemistry, Bio, and Physics and received As.
I have some worries.
1. I have been to many different schools because I was in the Army, and my husband is currently in the Marines. My current (and last) university is the 4th school. How will this look?
2. Basically, after the military I became a SAHM for 2.5 (so no jobs). I did continue my schooling full time at night, though. I am not sure how that would look? Any input?
My daughter started full time pre-school, and I am able to finally take the advanced courses only offered during the day.
I am exploring the idea of getting a degree in Biomedical engineering instead of chemistry after exploring this major at my school. I am only in my Junior year and most of pre reqs are the same as for chemistry, so save two engineering courses-- I would not be behind much. Which major would look "better"?
I have also applied for a volunteer position at a local hospital, so I am hoping for volunteer hours.
I am just wondering if I even have a chance at medical school.
