Hey Guys,I need some advice!
So i just recently decided to graduate a year early with my bachelors. (I was done with all the credits but wasn't sure if I wanted to stay an extra year taking random classes) Due to the late confirmation, I am looking at a gap year. I tried finding a job with a biology degree, but seems like there's not much out there unless you have some type of experience with research (our school was very limited with this) or direct patient care. Does anyone have any ideas of what I should do for the following year? I've been looking at one year masters programs, but a lot of their deadlines have passed. Does anyone know of any programs that are still open? I have not taken my GRES as of yet (signed up July 23, can move it up earlier) I took my MCATs but didn't really score that well at all,(family issues) so I would prefer not to include those in my application. Are there any suggestions what to do for a year? I have decent ECS (summer volunteering in India, student leadership positions in school, etc). Any help is greatly appreciated as I am starting to freak out that I do not have anything planned for next year! lol Thanks in advance!🙂
Also wanted to add, I have not been accepted into any programs as of yet. I am still deciding on whether to retake my MCATs (horrible experience) or to just apply to P.A programs, but will most likely apply by this summer. Will be free from September to do anything=]
