My undergrad gpa was a 3.65. I applied to a SMP to try and get into medical school but my gpa however is a 2.91. I need to retake two courses for this smp and I have to drag out for another year. I am thinking of retaking the courses, obviously passing them with A’s and maybe taking extra courses to resuscitate my GPA. Should I just switch to PA? Will PA programs penalize me harshly for this? For example I took three human anatomy courses in undergrad and got A’s. I got A- in biochem in undergrad but struggled in my smp. What do you all think?

So my undergrad gpa was a 3.6. I am doing a SMP and not performing well. My culm gpa is a 2.91 and I dropped a class in the fall semester. I am thinking of doing a second year concentration to raise my gpa and retaking my dropped class. I am taking my mcat this summer. I think it was stupid of me to do this SMP. I should have just taken the mcat and saw where it got me. Now I have to worry about repairing my gpa. Should I just switch to PA?
