Hi people. I've applied this cycle to 26 schools and complete at like 10 of them since mid August. So far 1 rejection and 1 hold. I know it's too early to worry, but I want to have a solid plan B.
Stats: 3.55 cGPA, 3.36 sGPA, 3.67 BCP GPa. 37 mcat.
Freshman year I took calc, failed, and retook to get a D. That's 8 credits of a .5 GPa factored into my sGPA, unfortunately. That was 5 years ago. Strong upwards trend since.
I have ~170 hrs clinical volunteering, 50 hours pediatrician shadowing, 15 hours surgery shadowing.
Operation smile VP and secretary from 2011-2013.
Research tech since March 2014.
If I don't get in this cycle. I'll definitely apply early and keep doing research, volunteering and shadowing. My question is: would taking like 3 science classes to boost my sGPa be the best way to improve my application?
