I recently graduated with a uGPA of 3.41 and a sGPA of 3.44 and my first MCAT was a 494. I talked to a few schools and scheduled a retake, but a few recommended their masters programs. I have heard mixed reviews on them and just wanted some more opinions. That being said I only switched to pre-med two years ago so my extracurriculars are weak and may be a better use of that time.
 
The recommending the Masters because they want your tuition money.

We take the mcat, but not until you are 100% ready for it. Your GPS are fine for any DO school, including mine.
It definitely came across like a sales pitch
 
Your gpa is great for most of DO. I would suggest you to focus on MCAT and other EC's. Save that money for med school. Like Goro said take MCAT only when you are 100% ready.
