SMP GPA 3.58, ok?

This question is mainly directed @Goro because I have seen you quote a GPA target for SMP's. My final GPA (due to an unexpected A- in one class) in a well known SMP is a 3.58. I have seen you say that a 3.6 + is what people should be aiming for, and at the risk of sounding stupid, I was wondering if my GPA being slightly below that would still be okay - that is, as long as the rest of my application looks good.

I have not yet taken the MCAT but know what I should be...

Hey guys,

So far in the application process I've tried to stay away from forums and such and instead just wait to hear back from the schools I applied to, but I'm starting to get more and more nervous about it and would love some feedback on my chances.

I'm currently a senior biology major and chemistry/neuroscience double minor at Wake Forest University, and in addition to my GPA/MCAT which I listed in the thread title, I have strong leadership experience, research experience, good...

1 C+ in Cell Bio

I ended up with a C+ in my freshman second semester cell bio course. All my other grades, (including my math, first semester biology, and chemistry courses) are B+'s and above for my freshman year. My overall GPA is a 3.58 and my sGPA is a 3.56. Will this one C+ affect my chances of getting into Medical School? Will medical schools not even consider my application if I make sure that this one grade is my first and last bad grade for the rest of my undergrad years?

When I calculate my gpa with Amcas calculator, my gpa goes down to 3.64. It might go down more. I wanted to apply for md school, now I'm not sure what to do. I think 3.6 gpa is too low for Asian applicant and from low reputation school..

I'm a nontraditional student- I've been working for the past 2 years since finishing school as an ICU nurse. I was going to wait and apply next year when I can get my GPA up for MD level competition but my MCAT gave me a thread of hope. WAMC? (LizzyM score = 72.4)

I had a terrible first year, finished the last 2 years with just about straight A's in a Nursing Science degree; all my BCMPs were essentially in my first year hence the terrible sGPA.

Hello All,

I know this topic has been beaten down by every other premed out here, but its driving me nuts and I have to get some opinions.

I really want to apply DO in the 2016 cycle but I am not sure if it would be worth it given my stats. Of course, the other option would be Carib, but I would like to avoid the hassle if possible.

Here are my stats:

Metrics:
Undergrad GPA - 3.3/3.4 with a 4.0 in my major (Anthropology)
Masters GPA - So far, 3.6 but I am just...

I am currently a 4th year undergrad at UT Austin. I currently have a science GPA of 2.7, and a cumulative GPA of 3.34. I had received 2 Fs, 3 Cs, and 1 D for my basic sciences courses (Physics 1, BIO 1 and 2, CHEM 1 and 2) early on during my 2nd and 3rd year of undergrad and had semester GPAs ranging from 1.6 to 2.6. I had retaken some of the basic science courses and did not improve by much, often going from a D to a C during those two years. However, I had received a...

Good afternoon everyone, this is my first post on SDN and I've been reading these forums for quite a while now. I just finished my 3rd year undergrad at RU New Brunswick, this year's GPA was a 3.1, as opposed to god awful 1.5's and 2s the first two years. I struggled my first two years with rough living conditions and some health issues, as well as just an overall lack in academic performance. Due to this I failed a few core requirement classes. I have since changed my environment and I am...

Hello kind people,

So my cGPA after this semester is 3.77, Science GPA is a 3.75, I got a 517 on my practice MCAT, so I am assuming something like a 515. I have very strong leadership experience, about 250 hours of research, a little over 100 hours of non-clinical volunteering, no clinical volunteering (I will begin this summer but will not likely put it on this application), I have some shadowing, lots of experience in public health outreach (paid), experience teaching first aid, CPR, and...

Hey guys I'm new around here. I'm here looking for honesty first and foremost, so if I could get as objective responses as possible that'd be amazing.
GPA(both)-3.6
MCAT 514 (130,126,130,128)
Clinical-3000 hours (half are future counted, up until Aug 2018, is that bad?) working as a cardiology tech. Really high quality experience. 50 hours hospital volunteering with good contact.
Nonclinical- 100 hours of nonclinical volunteering tutoring kids. Another 30 hours of tutoring college peeps...
