[quote=Anonymous]Doctor (MD) here. I am also a specialist who has done 2 fellowships and a training program director so I see the entire training gamut and thousands of applications. Sorry but 3.2 wont cut it. If you go to a prestigious undergrad that helps a little but ONLY if you also have the grades and test scores. You have a small chance at a Caribbean medical school but will forever feel like a second class citizen even if you can get back to the US for a low tier residency. If this is their dream, then go back and get better grades, score super high on the MCAT and do a boatload of research WITH publications and get stellar letters of rec. ps. an NP or PA is a good job but anytime you need a real decision, you will always want an MD with real training, understanding of pathophysiology and not just cookbook decisions. Sorry but otherwise why would our best and brightest students go into medicine if its the same as seeing an NP. Another topic for another time. [/quote]
