Fast Track Facts:
The minimum GPA requirement to apply to most BS/MD programs is 3.5, not 4.0. Many programs don’t have a GPA cutoff at all. Most students still never even apply because they assume they aren't competitive enough.
Every few days someone posts in a premed forum something like: "I have a 3.8 GPA and a 1460 SAT. Is there any point in applying to BS/MD programs?"
And then a bunch of strangers on the internet tells them not to bother.
Stop reading those posts. Seriously. The people responding don't know your application, don't know your story, and most importantly, don't know which programs you're actually targeting. Reddit is not your admissions committee.
I'll be honest, I considered myself an average student too. But my drive to do medicine was just as strong as you all. And that drive is what helped me get into an accelerated BA/MD program, match into one of the most competitive specialties in medicine, and finish a surgical residency.
You’re only "average" if you let that label dictate your actions.
So what should you do if you think you’re an “average” applicant?
