Hello all,
I am currently a junior at the University of Pennsylvania majoring in the Biological Basis of Behavior(a mix of neuro and behavioral science.) My GPA thus far hasn't been too stellar (3.3 and Sci GPA around 3.2) but I am still hard core pre med-and will do what it takes with the time left in college. I have confidence that I can do well on the MCATs-I have taken practice tests without studying and have done pretty well. I have also done volunteer work in local nursing homes-and at Penn I am a member of the exec. board of a prominent Tutoring/Mentoring Group-as well as the board of the larger Community service organization at Penn.
Should I apply after senior year and when is the best time for me to apply?-I understand that med school's use rolling admissions.
Do I have a shot if I beef up my grades in the next three semesters?
Thanks,
Biffer
