Hi All,
Long time lurker here, posted this in the post bacc forum but I thought it might be more relevant here.
I've been out of school for a year now. I graduated with a business degree, and absolutely hate it. I wasn't cut out for the corporate world, and now I'm taking a second look at what I wanted to do before advising scared it out of me - medicine.
I've been reading a lot of posts, and it seems like post bacc program (been looking specifically at Harvard's HCP) might be a pretty good fit for me. I graduated with a 3.6 GPA. I'm not sure exactly how to calculate science GPA, but I got an A in every science class I ever took in college, so I'm guessing it's 4.0. Thing is, I never took any of the med school prereqs, so I'm really starting from square one.
I'm just wondering what I should do at this point? Is it too late to apply for post baccs this Fall? Should I try to volunteer at a hospital or clinic for a few months to pad my application? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
