Without beating around the bush, I performed relatively poorly in my last 3 semesters of college; average GPA of 3.35 with 2 failed courses. Some personal issues came up and they had a rather significant impact on my performance to say the least. I still managed to pull out a cGPA of 3.72 and a sGPA of 3.89. As far as EC's go, while they are not the best I do not believe they are horrible.
-400+ hours Volunteer work between Red Cross and local Hospitals
-3000+ hours working as a Paramedic
-TA for a few professors
-President/member for a few clubs
-100+ hours of job shadowing
-No research
How are medical schools going to look at these last 3 semester? Are they ging to have a profound impact on my consideration? It is a rather large dropoff from the GPA I carried my first few years in undergrad, roughly 3.9. What would be my best course of action, should I take another semester of courses to show that it was more of a anomaly. I graduated with a degree in accounting so the science courses I did take are the bear minimum.
Thanks in advance.
