What would you recommend as a pre-med?

Trying to decide between a DIY post-bacc vs SMP and would appreciate advice.

By graduation, my projected cGPA should be around a 3.65 with a strong upward trend. My freshman/sophomore years were bad, but I have around a 3.9 junior year GPA and 4.0 senior year GPA.

I’m also an Econ major and won’t have all of my premed prereqs completed by graduation, so I still need several core science courses and upper-level biology classes.

Given this, would a DIY post-bacc at a 4-year state university make more sense than an SMP?

Prior enlisted in guard here. Anyone know if I can attend BLC and be SGT until commission once I'm contracted with SMP?

Any of yall get ur final grade in usc experience/oasis yet?

I'm graduating with around half of my pre-med pre-reqs done and a cgpa of 3.6 (upward trend). I will need to do a postbacc regardless, are there any 1-year formal post-baccs worth applying? or is it smarter to just do a DIY postbacc at a state school?

I'm hearing anything from 1000 to 1600. What's an acceptance time? When do those that fly usually get there?

Prior enlisted cadets who have done both, how does the overall stress, physical toll, and cadre environment of CST actually compare to BCT?

How do they choose administrative leadership like PSG, 1sg, etc. from cadets during CST? Would being one help in terms of score?

Any advice to climb the ranking for this?
