Okay, let me start this off by saying that I don't mean to be pretentious and I don't automatically assume I'll get into a med school. Here's my question: would you go to a med school that you were already accepted to, or would you wait a year to bring up some of your grades and then try to get into one of your top choices? The reason I ask is that I had a personal tragedy my freshman year, and have sub-par grades for my first 3 semesters. Since then, I have gotten 4.0's every semester (this being the Spring of my Junior year) and have been scoring in the mid 30's on my TPR diags. I think I'd have a good chance of getting into one of the Texas schools, but I'd really like to go to Mayo, Penn State, etc. I'm just wondering if I should just wait a year off and hopefully get 4.0's my senior year too and then apply, or just apply now. Thanks in advance...
