Does it make sense to do a SMP before retaking classes you didn't do well in undergrad? I know it's counter-intuitive but I've taken all my pre-med requirements, graduated from a top 30 school with an uGPA of 2.65, virtually no post-bacc out there would accept someone like me and there are slim chances of me entering most SMP since most require a 3.0 as a baseline GPA. After thoroughly researching SMP, I came across the Geisinger MBS program. It isn't particularly competitive but I was accepted. I've been in contact with some current students there and it sounds like a great opportunity. However, now I'm thinking if I should have retaken all the classes I did subpar in at a local college before applying to a SMP. What are your thoughts on this? Is my route unorthodox? Keep in mind, I've taken all pre-requisites so I'm not putting myself at a disadvantage by doing the program plus, I don't want to waste precious time.
