Hi, I'm just finishing my BS in Physician Assistant in June. I'm 25. I decided I want to goto medical school. Wasn't my intention, but I just found that's more suited to me. I have a 3.602 or something like that. I'm missing a few pre reqs such as physics 1 and 2, organic 2, and bio labs. My science GPA could probably due with a bit of buffing, so i was thinking about retakingmy C+ in org 1 and C+ in biochem D:. I did exceptional in all my medical courses like pharm and clinical medicine, lab medicine, physicial diagnosis and my rotations. So I wonder, should I take my pre reqs at the school i just finnished from? it's a small expensive no name private school, but i could do enough courses to get second BS in bio i guess ans i could retake gross anatomy to erase that icky C (dont take gross anatomy over 8 weeks in the summer). but who cares about a second bs? or should i just goto the state school where i want to goto medical school to do my pre reqs, maybe cheaper but im no a state resident sooo, maybe not. Hmm! I am hoping to take the mcat next spring. I had hoped to work at least part time as a PA because why not? but i dont want it to interfere with my coursework since a 4.0 is imperative.
Just ponderings i've had. I know what schools i am going to apply to. I'm pretty familliar with the application cycle since i saw my poor fiance go through it a year ago (he got in ) Obviously I hope to get into the same one, but I know it's a crapshoot. i plan on taking the summer to do some volumteer activities and ec's while looking for a part time job and decided what classes to do!
any thoughts?
