I have taken online courses while in the military, but am now at a regular 4 year university. Had about a 3.0 online coursework GPA. Now I have a 3.2 GPA at my current school. Science GPA is about 3.5. My first couple semesters here were pretty terrible. Had to retake a non prereq intro chem class a bunch of times. I've since then greatly improved and taken the General chemistry prereq class and passed with a A. Will this completely kill all chances for me or is there still some hope?

-Have not yet taken the MCAT
-3.2 gpa/3.5 sci gpa
-Served 5 years active duty military
-9,000 + patient care hours as a Navy Corpsman, Medical assistant, Emt-b
-Shadow hours
-very good lor's
-decent volunteer service
-older applicant 28 years old
- URM

What do you all think? Do I have a shot? Thanks!
 
Yup, you still do. Adcoms have a particular soft spot for veterans. What URM community do you represent?

And many thanks for your service to our country!
