What are my chances at one of the "big 4" Caribbean schools?

[Doctoor]

I took the MCATs last year and had a 13O: 5P 5B 3V

I just got my score back today for the 2nd time and I got a 17P: 7P 3B 7V

** in Chemistry with a 3.0 GPA
Chemistry lab research for a year
Clinical research for 6 months
Volunteered for maybe 100 hrs
Worked as a CNA for 5 years
President of my school's chemistry club

What should I do? I kinda almost gave up on medical school after being denied from Ross recently with my old MCAT score.

Thinking about reapplying to Ross, since I improved on 3 of my scores, but dropped one.

What are my chances at Ross, AUC, SGU and Saba?

[Tipton]

Oh shoot. I was thinking maybe Ross until I read your whole post...

with a 3 in the Biological Sciences?? really?

and a 3.0 in gpa....

you can't fix that gpa but you need to take a class to prep yourself or audit some bio, esp physiology classes and retake the MCATs.

AUA still doesn't require the MCAT. So thatt's probably your best shot. I imagine they will begin requiring the MCAT within the next 12 months or so.

How does AUA rank compared to the big 4, University of Medicine and Health Sciences at St. Kitts, St. Mathews?

Is there a list somewhere that I can check out that would rank all of the Caribbean schools?

What are my options for medicine besides US DO/MD and Caribbean?

[BlakeRoss]

I'm actually about to attend the University of Medicine and Health Science at St. Kitts, which has a really solid program. They also have a program that is an extended basic science program, which gives you more time to focus on the courses to help you succeed. If science isn't your strongest subject, that could be a good possibility for you. They definitely offer a solid program and could be a good answer for you.
