Hello everybody,

I am finishing pharmacy school 2021 with a 3.5-3.6 GPA and thinking of applying to medical school next summer. I have 2 publications and 5 years working in both clinical and retail setting pharmacies. I went to pharmacy school after undergrad because I had a 2.89 gpa and didn’t realistically think I would get into any other grad programs. Does anybody have any thoughts on my chances and how medical schools will view my graduate program comparing them to SMP programs or post baccs and will my graduate GPA sorta make up for my undergrad GPA? I went to a top 25 pharmacy school as well (doubt that makes a difference though lol). My stats Ugpa 2.89 Grad gpa 3.5-3.6 510 MCAT and 2 publications. 100 hours of volunteer in hospitals And 80 hours shadowing a ER DOC . Also My state residence is PA.

Your only chance for MD interviews would be your PA schools:
Commonwealth-Geisinger
Drexel
Temple
Jefferson
Penn State
You should be able to receive interviews at DO schools and I suggest all these:
PCOM (all schools)
LECOM (all schools)
UP-KYCOM
WVSOM
MU-COM
ACOM
ARCOM
NYIT-AR
WCU-COM
UIWSOM
Noorda-COM (new school)
