I had started my pre-reqs relatively late in my college career. Because of this, I will not have the course background sufficient for taking the MCAT until my senior year. This will necessitate me taking a gap year or two.
What do people in my situation do with their gap years? I understand that people with less than stellar GPAs do DO grade replacement and/or post-baccs, and people with little clinical volunteering work at low-level hospital jobs.
What are some other options?
What value might something like getting a Master's degree have?
My B.S. will be in Chemistry. Is it hard to get a job as a lab monkey and do that while I apply? I don't have any Chemistry-related internship experience to speak of. All of my undergraduate summers have been spent doing pre-med stuff.
Thank you.
