I applied with a 3.5 cGPA, 3.48 sGPA and am currently waitlisted. To increase my chances for next cycle I was thinking about taking 2 post-bacc classes this winter while working to show med schools I am able to continue doing well in upperdiv science courses. I know that this won't raise my GPA but I feel like doing well in these classes will look good when I re-apply in June. Im unsure which courses to take, these are my options:
Introduction to Pathophysiology: Disease States in the Human Body
Pathophysiology of Cardiovascular Disease
Pulmonary Physiology
Medical Terminology
I would love to take the medical term class bc I feel like it would be very helpful but Im afraid it won't look as rigorous compared to the other courses? I can obviously only take one of the Pathophysio classes so I was thinking one of those + either the pulmonary physio or medical term class. Does the class with "intro" in the name look worse than the other ones? Which 2 courses would u recommend (also trying to get good grades so Id like to take whatever's easiest but still "looks good").
