Hi 🙂)
I am about to finish up 32 units of post-bacc work at a CC. Have 3 more weeks before finals and my registration date is here. I am applying to DO programs this June.
Question is: Should I sign up for and take more classes for next Fall?
Stats are: 3.45 sGPA (with current semester courses included) and 3.37 cGPA. 27 MCAT (from October 2014) --> 8PS, 9V, and 10 BS
Potential classes I'm thinking of is the second semester of combined A&P, at the CC along with an econ course that I'll probably use to retake a C+ I got when I took it at the 4-year I got my degree from and maybe add another science course. Classes are really cheap at the CC... like $60 per unit.
Or I could do open university at the 4 year but it is $300 per unit. Maybe take some specific upper div courses like neurobio? or virology and parasitology? I'm looking at spending over $3000 if I go this route. These courses will not be retakes either and will not affect my GPA that much.
If I DON'T take any classes, what do you guys recommend? Just worry about applications and continue my volunteering and shadowing?
Thanks guys/gals!
