[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Niece is a junior at a top-20 SLAC on a pre-med track. She had a rough start and her GPA is 3.5 overall, biology major. Her father is a Harvard educated doctor and they always talk of her following in his footsteps. I don’t think her GPA is competitive and she may do better trying for a PA program. Anyone in similar situation? Is 3.5 too low for respectable MD programs?[/quote] From what I hear a 3.5 is too low for most PA programs - with the only exception being people who have been working in medical field for some time. If you are coming in with a minimal (1000 or less patient contact hours), the GPA I'm seeing are up in the 3.85 range for overall and science GPA. [/quote]
