I have a pretty low GPA, u2.5 currently a Junior was wanting to do an SMP because getting to a 3.0 with a post-bacc will take too long for me. What are some options for SMPs with no hard Cutoff? I plan to have a 2.7 o 2.8 when I graduate and i took the MCAT and got a 515. Are there any other options for me?

I don't have an answer for you, but I do have an observation. You say, "... will take too long for me." Seems like your shortcuts haven't paid off, you might have a better shot if you slowed down and actually learned a little along the way, I bet your grades would improve too.

As someone who also has a solid MCAT score, but did not do my best in undergrad (3.2 uGPA), take my advice- work on fixing your uGPA FIRST. Show that you are committed to a solid upward trend, especially if the lows are in science classes. No SMP will completely negate your poor performance in undergrad even for schools that reward reinvention. You are obviously bright, but take the time to prove that you are willing to work hard as well.

Good news and bad news. Good news, as I was searching for SMP programs to apply to I came across some programs that required 2.75 GPA. Bad news, I do not remember the schools but you're still in luck if your set on doing an SMP.
