2nd degree vs. 5th year


Recommended Posts

Okay, so I've already posted here many of times, but I have a question about what I should do ( I have less then a week to decide and was hoping I can get some insight). So, I have to make a decision between the Radiological Tech. program and a fifth year. I'm writing my mcat in sept.

 

So, my gpa again, is 1st:3, 2nd:3, 3rd: 3.75, 4th:3.93

 

And the RT program is only to get into med school (I'm not too keen to work as a RT, but I may do it for a year or two if I don't get into med school right away). Its a 3 year program!

 

After my 5th year, I'm thinking of doing a Masters (which would be 2 years). This would be a total of 3 years as well.

 

So now I just want to make sure I make the right decision. What do you guys think? Which option makes me stronger to get into Med school, that is the main question.

If you start a new degree program then for Western's sake (can't help but to notice the name :) ) then you will have to finished that degree and it is quite possible only grades from the second degree will count - I am sorry that I can't remember this but where you able to get an interview at Western this year? What was your MCAT score? Have you actually graduated at this point?
