Hello friends 🙂

I am currently at a 3.68 GPA. Would it be worth staying in college one more quarter to boost my GPA up a bit, or should I just work on my MCAT to supplement my lower GPA?
At my college, my transcript will show that I have graduated cum laude, and if I stayed one more quarter, I would perhaps be able to get it to a 3.7, but that falls short of magna cum laude.

I didn't do very well my first couple years of college because I suffered from severe depression, but I got help and the past couple years I have gotten straight 3.9's and 4.0's.

Also, I am graduating with two degrees: a BA in public health and a BS in neuroscience, does having two degrees look good as a medical school applicant, or do they not really care?

Please help, I am very new to this process!

Thank you!

Work on your MCAT. A 0.02 GPA raise isn’t really gonna do much for you.

As for multiple majors, it only matters that you did well, they don’t care if you did it.
