Hi guys,

I'm new and wanted some honest opinions from people who fancy going into the medical field. I know my stats are far from stellar, Just wanted some honest opinions and what I should do next.
My stats are:
have 2 more semesters left in college. Graduating Fall 2012
cGPA: 3.1
sGPA: 3.05
MCAT: 28
EC( basic undergrad research, philanthropy chair for frat ( raised $2000), working at optometry clinic right now)

Freshman year
 
I'd say that what's keeping you from being competitive at this point isn't your MCAT... It's your GPA. You might look into doing a post-bacc. Perhaps someone else could comment on that. A 28 isn't optimal, but paired with a >3.5 GPA (especially sGPA) you'll have a shot.
