Overall gpa 3.22 (Didn’t withdraw from classes one semester and got all F’s.) Science GPA 3.45. Last two years of upper division science classes 3.89. Strong upward trend. Screwed up first 1.5 years and came back strong. MCAT 520.
Should this person do a master’s in medical science. Taking more undergraduate courses won’t move the needle significantly.
Specific Colleges to apply to include U of MN, U of MN St. Cloud campus opening soon, and North Dakota. Open to suggestions on MD and DO schools that look at an upward trend. Would also like critique of application.
