1) Accepting students who had one bad year but two other good years?

2) Accepting students who have excellent activites, letters of rec., and essay but a 3.5 GPA?

3) Accepting URM?

4) Putting heavy emphasis on the interview?

Thanks.

Oh. In that case, my answer remains Caribbean schools.

Do not be troubled by such things. Eventually you will have to harvest what you sow.

Since when did 3.5 become so bad. 3.5 is a solid GPA.

Apply widely as it's really a crapshot. Consider Temple, BU, UIC and Albany. Good luck.

Damn! You people are brutal. To the OP, don't worry about it. Rock the MCATs and you'll be sitting pretty. I bombed my first year (below a 3) and then made an upward trend to end up with Dean's List and a final GPA ~3.6 and all turned out well. If you had any difficulties that were caused by reasons beyond your control (personal illness, family troubles, etc), be sure to mention it in your personal statement. Otherwise, it sounds like you have several things going for you. Good luck!
