Hello, this is my first time posting here.
I am a 3rd year (political science major) with a 2.82 gpa. I was wondering which path I should take to raise my gpa and get into med school. With political science courses, I have confidence in achieving a straight As. The science courses really threw me off in addition to my laziness in my second year. Should I stop taking science courses and graduate early (finish my poli sci requirements) and apply to post bacc with linkage programs? Or should I keep going and aim to get straight As and apply to medical schools? I'm hesitant about the second option because the highest undergrad gpa I can get even with straight As would be around 3.4, which is still very low for medical schools. Which option would provide me with the best chance of getting into MD programs?
