Cum. non-science GPA: 3.89 Cum. Science GPA: 3.92 GRE: 147 V/152 Q/ 5.0 W HCE: 200 hours as scribe (quit that job), 500 hours as PCA for home health aide (currently working 20hr/week). Volunteer: Tutor weekly, 100 hours at a free clinic for underserved. Leaderships: TA for chemistry at my university.

boli Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Your GPA is very good, but your PCE and your GRE are both low. Some schools put an emphasis on grades only and some prefer a more well rounded candidate. I know you said you don't want to re-take the GRE but that might help your chances. UTMB accepted students average a 311 on the GRE, UNT mentions that the GRE is considered etc. You'll probably get interviews due to your GPA but if I were you I'd retake the GRE and continue to try and get as many PCE hours as possible.
