Since you asked for “honest opinion”, a sub-3.0 GPA will not get pass any DO or MD application screening (i.e., automatic deny by software).

Based on your posting history, you asked about post-bacc back in April so you did have some idea how bad your situation is.

With that said, if you’re still very committed to med school journey, your path will be a long & hard one. You will need more science classes with A to raise your sGPA; or you can go for SMP (special master program, not post-bacc); or work couple years in medical-related field (you were MA) then SMP.

Look for SMPs with linkage. But your sub-3.0 GPA may not even qualify you for the good SMPs…that’s how bad your situation is.

But there is always a chance if you keep on it. Go to SDN site and read up on those non-traditional success stories and get some inspiration and encouragement.
