So as we have it my undergraduate advisor just sent me a discouraging email.
Basically states following;
Medical school not realistic.
I knew x person that applied with biology degree, high gpa like yours, competitive MCAT score. They didnt get in first time, they even had experience in blood processing lab. They had to work additional year at that Lab. Got in second time.
We should talk.
End of email.
So a little about me grew up dysfunctional family. Non- Traditional Student. 37 year old Female. No kids, husband, pets to tie me down. Low Income.
Psychology major, with English minor. Have taken up to calculus II, but dont have required sciences like bio,chem,org chem, physics.
I will graduate with 3.8-3.9 GPA this Dec.
I have some extracurricular activities such ad founding a chapter of Psi Chi. Being a member of Sigma Tau Delta.
0 job shadowing/volunteer hours in medical field.
(But I have applied to Job Shadow, and volunteer in local hospital)
I have applied to a Pre Med Post Bacc program at a school in Philadelphia.
This school has a boasted over 90 percent placement rate into medical school.
Even, though my undergraduate advisor is being discouraging. I propose the question of should I do it?
I know I can handle the courses. Or at least think I can.
