Hi everyone!
Just wanted to know what everyone's opinions are and would like it most if those that know or did smp's lent their two cents.
My stats:
Major: Social Science and Biology
cGPA/sGPA: 3.5/3.1
MCAT: 30Q
Extracurriculars:
- 4 years of shadowing with a Peds and Cardiologist
- Summer internship program
- Clinical Research at some big NYC hospitals
- EMT certified
- Science tutor for HS and College students
- International experience in building a healthcare system in a rural area
I called St. Georges and they have said to me that I am competitive for their school but I still worry being that its hard afterwards to find a residency (from what I read on the forums). The thing with SMP is that there is no guarantee because even if I do well, my original GPA is low. I got Cs in my entire year of Orgo and one semester of bio (because of a family tragedy)
Should I apply to an SMP or go into St. Georges?
Thank you!!
