[NYian]

Hello all,

I'm a 24 years old finishing my degree in Biology and public health from a private university in NY. My undergrad gpa is about 3.1 and premed reqs are:
General Biology 1: A
General Biology 2: b+
Gen chem 1 class B-
Gen chem 1 lab A
Gen chem 2 class B-
Gen chem 2 lab 2
Organic Chem 1: c+
Organic Chem 2: c
Physics 1: C
Physics 2: B
Biochemistry 1: B
--------------------------------------------------
Overall GPA is 3.1
With that said, should I do a post bac? or take another BS degree in Medical biotech which can be completed in 2 years, or do a post-bac and finish it in one year and then apply?
I have strong volunteering and shadowing activities and worked full time while in school

What's your MCAT? If you have taken it that is.

If you haven't I'd recommend a PostBacc. I believe your GPA isn't that bad to need a 2nd bachelors. If you do a Post-Bacc and do well (like really well >3.8) and get a solid MCAT in the 509+ range you could do a 1 year post-bacc/SMP and I think get into a few DO schools and some MD schools depending on your overall application.
