I have made a thread like this one before but I just need to know for a peace of mind.
I am a biology major and a fine arts minor
I am a junior and will be getting ready to submit my application for med school in about a year.
I went to a private liberal arts college for 2 years and I am transferring out with a 3.41 (3.32 without the grade replacement, which was one C replaced with a B plus). I am going to a better school now but I know I only have two more semesters to work on my gpa.
Here's how my first two years look:
First semester - 3.3
Second semester - 3.06
Third semester - 3.56
Fourth semester - 3.3 something
working part time for the past year and a half. Have volunteer and shadowing hours from before I started college, I am going to start volunteering again soon. I am planning on volunteering outside of the country (third world) - don't know where yet. President of a club and I will do research in the next year.
I know I can do really well in the next two semesters. I don't have trouble with my academics but my first year was particularly bad due to family issues. Last semester was straight A's until I started stressing out and doing bad even though I knew the material.
Do I have a chance of getting in to an MD school in US?
What kind of schools should I be applying to? I just need a few names so I know where I stand
