Just wondering? I was always a high achiever in HS graduated with my AAS, CMA my senior year, and was accepted to a competitive pre-med program graduating in 3 years.
Well, it is evident now that I will not have the grades to be accepted to MD, DO, or PA school not that I was ever against nursing (my mom and sister are RN's) I always wanted more science, more why, more understanding or so I thought (Reality was humbling).
My sGPA is low 3.3 (almost straight B's), cGPA 3.77, and MCAT 505 (low). I will graduate this year and have all of the pre-reqs to apply to a ABSN program.
Any premeds that aren't doing epically well considering the same?

Gotcha. Interesting, as the only knowledge I have of it is from those who didn't have issues getting residencies and honestly I can't believe ALL of them were top of their classes, but who knows. Fresh information is good to have, thanks ?
Good to know! Like I just responded to Tegridy, I was under the impression that the residency in the US wasn't really an issue, they all got placed. Didn't ever discuss costs, either. What a system ?
Back a decade ago most Caribs matched. Now it’s harder bc of DO schools. So now it’s mostly the top ones. Back then carib was a decent deal just not now
