Hi y'all,
I'm new to this forum so excuse me in advance if I commit any faux pas. I'd like to hear as much information as I can for my options after this year. I'm graduating from Washington University in St. Louis with a major in psychology (focus on cognitive psychology) and a minor in biology. My gpa will be about a 3.2 or so. I will be taking the mcat this summer (in fact, im dedicating my summer to doing so). I believe, confidently, that I can score above a 30. What are my options for increasing my lackluster GPA? I didn't know what I was doing freshman and sophmore year so my gpa's sucked. My GPA the last few semesters, however, have been 3.7+. I'm doing undergraduate psychology research, and I spent a semester in Australia. I'm also an EMT and very interested in emergency medicine as a career.
My questions are should i do a certificate program or a masters program? What's the difference, what else should I be thinking about?
Thanks so much, and I'm sure i'll have more questions once the ball gets rolling.
