OK i have a 3.58 overall GPA, 3.44 Science GPA, and a 22Q MCAT. I have an interview with Ross, but would really like to go to AUC and i have gotten asked to take the MCAT over again by SGU...what are my chances with AUC??

i would say decent....apply and see what happens. if you dont get in anywhere, then you know what you have to do. hopefully your gpa will help you out though

i say apply. you're in the middle of the pact. your gpa is above avg but 22 is on the average. any other information you'd like to give us like LOR? volunteer experience? etc...

Did volunteer experience for about year and half. Shadowed one of the nation's top pediatric cardiology surgeons Dr. REdmond Burke at Miami Children's Hospital, and then a few local Dr.'s. My LOR's are good including one from Dr. Burke. Have worked through college as a lifeguard and RA and been really involved in other clubs and activities around campus, so i'm not worried about extracurricular. SGU already asked me to retake my MCAT, but i wasn't surprised with that, i'm just hoping its enough to get into AUC

that sounds good. make sure you have a good personal statement as well. i think you're in the middle of the pack so you should apply and see. are you applying to the may class?

Very good chance. There are people here with quite a bit lower scores.

I applied for september 08. I figured that was enough in advance to give me a good chance as well, but i see some people applied way earlier for sept too.

sept is usually the hardest class to get into while jan is the middle and may is the easiest of the 3.

yes, applying early might help your chances b/c auc is based on a rolling admission.

hope you get into auc.

Hi,
I have been browsing this site for 2 years and would actually like to post a "what are my chances?" I applied on 12/31 to AUC for May '08 and am getting so neervous about being accepted. I am really changing my life with this decision and just want to know if I am going or staying.

I graduated in 2002 from SUNY Binghamton with a ** in psychobiology with a very low gpa of 2.3. I have been conducting NCI clinical research trials in hematology/oncology at a medical center for the past 5 years and 4 months (huge clinical and medical experience here). Then I took the following classes at night for the past 2 years: medical microbiology, anatomy & physiology II & II, inorganic chem I & II, organic chem I & II, physics I & II. My gpa for post-bacc coursework was 3.56. MCAT in 8/07 was 24R and 9/07 was 24O. My LOR's are from chief of hem/onc (work), research director (work), physics prof/pre-health advisor and med micro professor/asst chair of biology.

so, thank you for giving your opinion of "what my chances are"
