Hey! I know something like this has been brought up, but most of it has been about dual credit for a few classes, and I was just wondering if anyone had any advice for a somewhat different situation?

I was enrolled in a 2-year early college entrance program for my last two years of high school, so I took a lottt of classes (approximately 30ish classes) during that time and ended up with some pretty bad grades. I went to a state uni and have since gotten a 4.0, but I found out that hs...

Hi there,

I am a recent grad from a top 15 school, English major, URM (AA) and first gen. I had a very difficult time adjusting to the college workload and didn't really begin to have things a little more together until my last two years.

I will be doing a DIY postbacc at a local state school in order to boost my sgpa and will be taking the MCAT in June as I have already taken all the premed prereqs.

EC's: I have volunteered at a children's hospital for the past 3 years and will...

Hello, all. Please help me formulate a proper school list with my stats and ECs. I did 1 year at a CC and the rest of my undergrad at a state school. Bio major with a minor in Spanish. I think my stats are good but my biggest handicap is that I am a non-Canadian international student. I have already looked at the MSAR and made a list of schools that accept international students but its 45 schools long so I'd love some help in whittling it down.

Also, since AMCAS allows you to include...

Hi guys, this is my second round of application as the first time I applied to 20 schools, but only received 1 interview to my state school, which I was rejected.

My stats are medium 3.64 cummulative gpa, and around 3.62 M/S, It was higher last year when I applied around 3.67 and 3.68 respectively, I kinda let my grades slip a little senior year. My MCAT score is 517 with a break down of 130/130/130/127. I am ORM.
