Should I apply?


Recommended Posts

Hi thanks for reading this I'm currently just debating whether its worth it or not to apply next year as a 3rd year applicant or wait untill my gpa is higher and I have stronger ec's next year.

 

My mcat is 12 for vr

And my cgpa is 3.78

 

Thanks again

Nothing to lose by applying :) Your VR is amazing and might make up for your GPA!

Dude, your post history suggests that you are a first year. Do not be precocious - let life carry it's course.

Think of it like this:

 

If you apply you HAVE at least some chances, if you dont your chances are literally 0.

 

Yes, as the cliché goes, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take - and unlike the Stanley Cup finals, you don't need to worry about making a fool out of yourself in front of thousands, either.

Yes. And I don't think Mac looks at your ECs anyway, so it wouldn't matter if they're 'stronger'.

The formula is based on GPA, VR, Casper. Then a second formula replacing the Casper with the MMI score.

Higher than me and I've gotten interviews both last year and this year at mac. I do believe it was my CASPER score that got me through with my below average VR and cgpa (when counting summers)
