Hi Everyone,
I just finished up my 3rd year at University of Toronto in Cell Biology. My GPA is just down the drain, I don't know what to do next.
My first year: cGPA = 3.62
My second year: cGPA = 3.54
My third year: cGPA = 3.41
I took the MCAT last summer and scored 10/8/10. I am re-writing it this year. My GPA is just going down the drain every year, I do well in courses until the exams, then it just goes down the drain. I haven't been really lucky with a evenly spread out exam schedule, nor do I have the best studying skills.
EC
- Frosh Leader (Fall 2012)
- Exec. for a Cultural Society (Fall 2012-Apr 2014)
- Exec. for the Biology Society (Fall 2012-Apr 2014)
- Exec. for the Chemistry Society (Fall 2013-present)
- Study Group Leader (Fall 2013-present)
- Volunteered at a Clinic last summer (~4 hours/week X 16 weeks)
- Volunteering at a Hospital (March 2014-present)
- Worked at an Assistant Supervisor for 6 months
I have a couple small things back from High School, I am not really sure if they would go towards the application, since most of the teachers I have no contact with them and majority of them have moved to different schools.
I really don't know where to head next. I plan to study smart and hard for the MCAT. Any advice on improving on the Verbal section? I am trying to get a Thesis project with a Prof. What should I do?
