I applied to all 13 schools in new york state and i got into 7 of them, so i think it does make a very big difference. 3.2, honestly, isnt the highest of gpas, but if you do nail the mcat, you definitely havea very good shot. also, the committee looks at a plethora of other factors, such as obstacles you've gone through in your life, (hint hint), and how you've overcome them to move on and be functional and ever more, successful, in life....med schools love STRONG personalities, so just get the interview, and LET IT SHINE!! have faith! i believe in you melissa...best of luck ---bassem i guess my best suggestion is one you already know about:

Then also probably Univ of NE- that's where we're from, so probably my 2nd best chance. Other than that, probably the missouri schools, and maybe an ivy league just for the heck of it ( I wouldn't go even if I got in). Any suggestions? My gpa is BAD (like 3.2), just hoping I did good enough on the mcat to make up for it. I'm dreading the personal statements the most!
