Hey folks,
I wanted to ask for advice when making a school list. I graduated in 2010 and worked for four years in political campaigns before returning to school for the post bac. Here are some stats:
uGPA: 3.34 (English major) Post bac: 4.0 cGPA: 3.54 sGPA: 3.79 MCAT: 524
What I'm seeing is that at many schools where my sGPA and MCAT is around the median, my cGPA is below the 10th percentile. At schools where my cGPA is closer to the median, my MCAT is well above the 90th percentile.
I'm still working on putting a list together, but I'm wondering if anyone has general advice for a strategy with this type of profile? I think it's tempting to think about this as if the post bac/MCAT is the only thing that counts because it's most recent, but I don't believe that's totally realistic.
Thanks in advance!
