URM: African-American
New York Resident
Overall GPA: 2.91
Science GPA: 2.64
B.S in Biology
Plan on taking the MCAT in September 2019
Clinical Volunteer Hours: 1000+ hours. Volunteered as a medical scribe and medical assistant.
Shadowing: 100+ hours. Shadowed doctors in internal medicine, dermatology, and pediatrics.
Research: 300+ Hours. Did research on biomarkers that can be used to predict the prognosis of bone cancer.
I want to do a DIY Post Bacc but I don't think this will be enough to raise my science gpa past 3.0. I have taken so many classes that doing a DIY Post Bacc won't increase my science gpa by much.
I was thinking of doing an SMP with linkage and compiled a list below:
TouroCOM-NY
LECOM Health Science Post Bachelors
PCOM- Masters of Science in Biomedical Science
VCOM - Certificate Program
NSU-COM
Drexel-Pathway to Medical School
Not sure if NYIT-COM has an SMP?
Do I still have a shot at MD schools like the SUNY's or Howard?
