low gpa med school reddit

So if you can show a medical school that, “I did awesome in physiology, anatomy, biochemistry and microbiology; all the same courses that your first year students were taking in medical school” Then obviously, the admissions committee can say, “this person has what it takes. Graduating with a poor uGPA, a mediocre MS GPA, under performing on the MCAT twice and then continuing with a mediocre post grad performance does not sound like being productive and hard working to getting an acceptance.Everyone has their struggles as well, those opportunities should be something you triumph over and not use as an excuse for poor grades. They help you maximize your G.P.A. In fact, with a lot of post-bacc programs and a lot of US SMP programs, you actually take a first year medical school curriculum. You might actually be able to get away with that sub-3.0 sGPA, given that you have a high cGPA and what must be a massive upward trend. It's gross.

I can tell you I've been working my butt off since I graduated with my masters degree to learn how the admissions process works. For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding.I am a junior who is finishing up a technology degree who also has an interest in pursuing medicine.

That being said, you'll need to do well on the MCAT: somewhat conservatively, 508+ for DO schools, 510 for your state MD schools, and 516+ for midtiers. Their low G.P.A. I don't understand what your advice is either. Scour the internet.Because of my personal issues, I ended up with a 3.4 MS GPA and a 2.9 BS GPA. You got a bunch of Cs, you got a bunch of D’s because you were having trouble adjusting. It sounds like the quickest way into school for you would be a post-bac/grade replacement and DO. Stacy had a very low undergraduate GPA but worked really hard to overcome it. You're probably thinking right now, this guy isn't even a medical student or doctor, why am I reading this? Remember special masters programs are programs that are designed specifically for pre-health students. I just retook it.. studied my butt off, and ended up taking a test that was loaded with LOW-YIELD topics. Low-GPA success stories: Anyone get into med school with a subpar GPA? There's almost no advice here, just "keep trying." Why?
