Hey all,
I'm currently in the Penn post-bacc program and a little worried if I'm wasting my time and money...graduated ugrad (ivy) with a 3.0 took gbio and gchem got A's but that was like 6-7 years ago....now as a post bacc i'm taking ochem and physics plus 7-8 upper levels....upper levels will be mostly A's, but the ochem and physics are looking like B's....overall post-bacc GPA will likely be around 3.5-3.6....so even though i've been out of school for several years my overall cum will be maybe a 3.1...science 3.6-3.7 ish (guess). Has anyone ever gotten into med school with a mediocre (3.5) post bacc after doing around 3.0 as an undergrad....you know because the motto here is A or die. thanks so much!
PS i'm not opposed to DO schools and my ECs (prior to post bacc cuz i'm working now) were great.
