Just got my AMCAS verified today and my totals are: 2.73 cGPA and 2.53 BCPM GPA
For AACOMAS: 3.2 cGPA and 3.45 sGPA
Just took the MCAT June 20 so I am waiting on those scores.
The reason I ask is because I am an unusual case... My Freshman year GPA was a 0.93 and my senior GPA was a 3.8 so there's an obvious upward trend(I have a reason for this as well and it is stated in my personal statement). I have a degree in athletic training so I have a ton of medical experience. I worked with an orthopedic physician for the past 6 months and got a great LOR from him. Throughout my undergraduate career I also have accumulated over 1000 hours of medical experience. On top of that, I have a ton of community service, was a president of student organization, etc., etc.
I was planning on waiting for my MCAT scores to send out the rest of my MD applications but after seeing how poor my GPA is, I feel as if I should not even waste the money and just apply to my DO schools.
Thoughts?
