Okay, so my undergrad cGPA is a 3.95 and my sGPA is a 3.93
I decided to go to grad school for fun and I also thought getting a master's would actually mean something. But between taking care of my sick grandma and working part-time my grades were not like my undergrad. my cGPA/sGPA is a 3.10.
I know its low, but the fact is, when I was an undergrad I wasn't taking care of somebody and I wasn't working. All I did was study and do volunteering.
Any thoughts on this? I heard med schools care more about your uGPA than your grad, but if you average the two, it comes to a 3.54-ish. which really hurts my 4 years working hard for that 3.95.
I also have a 27 on the mcat. Am I still a competitive applicant
I'm just hoping my other clinical ECs will help me.
Any thoughts from people who are going through something similar?
