I posted this up in the stats sticky thread, but I wasn't getting any hits. So I thought I'd post it here where more people might see it.
Undergrad University: Kent State University
Major: Psychology
Post-Bacc University: Cleveland State University
Major: Pre-Physical Therapy
Overall GPA: 3.10 (PTCAS Calculation)

(Additional GPA stats: Science GPA: 3.58, Last 60 hours GPA: 3.7)

Plan on applying: Azusa Pacific, Touro College, New York Medical College, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersy, Hampton, Cleveland State University, Youngstown State University, Pacific University, Rockhurst. (Others will probably be added because lets face it, I need to cast a pretty wide net)
Acceptances: N/A
Rejections: N/A
Interviews: N/A
I've been lurking this thread for awhile and finally decided to post my stats. Can you guys please give me some insight as to what you think about my chances are for the schools I have listed? Maybe some additional schools you think would be good for me to apply to?
My freshman and sophomore years are really hurting my GPA, but you can see a pretty dramatic increase in my grades throughout my college career, up to my 4.0 post-bacc GPA that I'm currently working on at Cleveland State. This includes a bunch of PT related classes, including an anatomy course with a cadaver dissection and a physiology course with a lab (the physiology course I took in undergrad did not have a lab) I didn't really fall in love with the PT field until later in my undergrad, around the same time I really started trying in my classes and was doing well.
So please, if there's any advice any of you can give me, hit me with it. Like I said, I'm reapplying and am freaking out a little bit that I might not get in anywhere again. If that happens, I'm not sure what I'm going to do!
