I wouldn't say above 3, above 2.5....in my experience...........

Hi,

I just applied to Ross for fall 2007, I have a 19 Q MCAT ( first try). 3.09 science GPA and 3.13 overall GPA. I feel like I might have a chance in Ross but what do you guys think? Am I just being irrational ? I am an registered nurse with advanced life support certification and have been working for 5 years and also have a few months of volunteer experience. I was wondering if someone could give me some advice because this website seems to be filled with supportive people. Thankyou.

hey, u have a great chance, not because of your grades or scores, but because your experience in the medical field as a nurse for 5 years. They will look into that deeply and appreciate it. Dont worry, u will get in. There were people in ur situation and got in. When it comes to interview time, make sure u explain to them that u r committed!!! Good luck

Hey,
I have about the same stats as you...Little bit less experience, little bit higher MCATS, and about the same gpa. I just sent out my apps. Good luck!!!
