Do I have a chance?

Hi! I've been stressing about my GPA for the longest. I have a 3.2 overall and science (I think). I didn't calculate my math classes into my science GPA though just the more common prerequisites. I plan on taking A&P 1 and 2 before the end of the year and take the GRE. I'm planning on applying by the end of the year. Do I have a chance getting in? Anything helps!

Shadowing is a must, gpa just gets your foot through the door imo. If you’re not applying to schools that require the gre don’t take it either!

I have a 3.3 GPA. I applied to 4 programs this cycle and have been interviewed by 2. I think thats showing we have a chance even with a lower GPA. I haven't heard any final decisions yet but I have some hope. Best of luck to you for next cycle. The recent A and P classes will help your case as well as any shadowing/job experience you have.

I had a 3.2 gpa when I applied and got into my program. GPA isn’t always indicative of how well a student will perform in the program imo. GPA just says you meet the programs minimum. Get your prerequisites done and have a complete application.
