I am being forced by my parents to apply to medical school this year. The problem is, I was planning all along to take a gap year to improve my resume.
No matter how much I tried to tell them about the good SMP programs can do, how bad Caribbean schools are, and how I'm not the strongest applicant I can be right now, they don't want me to "waste" another year.
I have a 3.1 overall GPA, and a 2.9 science which is not great. My MCAT was subpar, 498. I probably wouldn't accept someone like me...
Apply this year or be a reapplicant?
