Hey guys,
New to the forum and finding all the information very useful.
I had one question I was hoping you guys could help me with. I've been trying to discern my chances at Postbacc programs, but am dealing with a unique situation in terms of my GPA.
I went to Brown as an undergraduate and my first year got a cumulative 3.4 GPA, however, right at the end of the year, I became seriously ill and was forced to make a choice- either temporarily drop out or continue school but with the caveat of taking all classes Pass/Fail. Unlike a lot of colleges, Brown allows its' students to take any class Pass/Fail.
So, basically, I have a 3.4 GPA for my entire first year and all Passes for my classes sophomore, junior, and senior years.
Any idea how this will affect my chances of admission at either Postbaccs or future medical schools? Will it be accepted as a normal 3.4 gpa or a complete disaster and I should forget the notion of medical school entirely?
