Hey guys! So I originally had planned to apply this cycle. I was beginning to do so with low confidence in my stats. With a lot of emotional power, I decided to be smarter and take a year off and apply for the next cycle. I was wondering what you guys suggest I do with my time off before I apply next year to increase my chances of getting in. Here are some of my plans for the next year and some of my stats:
Stats
Sorry, this post was super long! I'd appreciate any input! I've emailed various programs about it but they are very vague in their suggestions. Thanks!
Stats
- Cumulative GPA: 3.418
- Exercise Science GPA: 3.558
- C's in Anatomy, Phys, Physics 2, Bio 1
- A's and B's in everything (more B's than A's)
- 500+ hours as an outpatient physical therapy aide
- Continue working at a LTAC hospital
- Retake Anatomy, Physiology, Physics 2, and Biology 1 - I received C's in all of the classes. Anatomy and Phys will be retaken at a 4-year institution
- I would retake a few more classes that I got B's in but I heard it doesn't look good if you have to retake so many classes
- Study and take the GRE
- Probably get a few more observation hours at different settings
