Hi I am looking to get some guidance or help regarding my current situation. Any help will be greatly appreciated
I graduated from McMaster university (Ontario, Canada) with a 3.59 cGPA BScN degree. I feel like my GPA is not competitive so I am intending to do another undergrad for 3-4 years. I am already 26 years old and feel this may be a "one shot" type of deal. I am currently working in the ICU as a nurse, but I can't continue this career knowing my true passions to be a physician.
Is age a factor when applying to med school (without sugar coating the answer)?
I cant have shadowing experience since I am in Canada (which is close to impossible), will this affect my application in the US?
Is a second degree good in improving GPA (we don't have post-bacc in Canada)?
Thank you for you help!
