MCAT? If <509, go DO. If >509, SMP and apply both.

OP's GPA is getting close to being on life support. I think doing a post-bac or SMP is needed to show that they can survive med school.

OP, these programs are a dime-a-dozen, so take your pick.

Have not taken the MCAT yet. Hoping to do so during SMP/ post bacc

Thanks for your advice. Do you think I am a good candidate to get into one of these programs?

You're the candidate these programs are designed for!

Students like you get into top programs in the country. You seem like you have a really good shot. You have nothing to worry about. No doubt you'd get into Hopkins.

I don't understand these comments. Like 80% of postbacc programs have an average GPA of 3.3. OP already found one: "I was hoping to go to Uconn post bacc but they now changed their requirements to a 3.25 GPA for admission."
