I just graduated undergrad (like a week ago, underwhelming bc COVID) and I am trying to plan how to best use my time going forward-- largely I am trying to decide if it makes more sense to retake courses I did poorly in (struggled really hard first two years, but then had all As and Bs second two) or to continue to take more advanced courses that show the mastery of those concepts.
I had originally had the understanding that retaking may be a better GPA booster, but because AAMC and AACOM have you input all grades individually even if the average is shown for retakes on your transcript, I am now leaning towards just taking more advanced and interesting courses rather than spending a ton of money to sit through gen chem again.
I would love anyone's thoughts or experiences with continuing education post-graduation from under-grad in advancing their medical school application.
Thank you!
