Hi,
Im an incoming senior undergrad at GWU. My current GPA is around 3.5/3.55 and I'm taking the MCAT this august (2017). I want to apply to some SMP programs (Georgetown, Tufts, Tulane, Duke) this summer as well after i get my MCAT scores back and was wondering, as my GPA is on the lower side for a lot of medical schools, I'm counting on one of these program to set me apart, but if I was to go to medical school directly after one of these one year programs, I'd have to apply to the medical schools before I get grades from the SMP program. So if someone could clarify how these 1 year programs better your grades when applying to medical school ill be eternally grateful!
