Greetings everyone,
I just joined and would like to be sure I am on the right track. I graduated in Bio with 2.67 GPA 8 yrs ago and have finally decided to go for medicine. My plan is to retake the big 4 (Inorg,org,Phys,Bio)to bring the GPA up then take the MCAT. However, since I work full-time, I can only take 2 courses at a time.
It was mentioned to me that Admissions committees frown upon the “one or two courses-at-a-time” method; especially if you’ve already taken them. But since I did not do well the first time which has been about 10 yrs ago, I need to really brush up on the concepts for the MCAT and to increase the GPA.
How much of a difference would it make enrolling in a Post-bacc program vs following my plan? I would also appreciate any suggestions I’ve not mentioned.
Thanks!
