Hi folks, I'd appreciate your advice on something.
So I think I'm heading to harvard for the hcp program, to boost the sci gpa. but my first time applying(last cycle) i hit submit on the last possible day, wrote my PS in 45 minutes, applied only to two schools, and didn't interview well at the 1 interview that i got.
But before I head up to MA, I want to apply one more time and this time I will apply early to the school I got the interview from, kill the PS, and hopefully kill the interview too, if I get one again.
My question is, what should I do in the meantime before I send out my AMCAS? I have one new LOR, a few more activities, a good PS, and a better idea of what to do. I want to apply early decision to Mercer.
I dunno, just throw out your ideas on whether I even should/could do anything at all other than just apply early and write a good PS.
I was considering taking 4 bio courses at my school since I am an engineer and need to show I can do biological sciences. But, get this, there are only 3 real bio classes offered at my school this summer! 3! At a school of 15000, 3 bio classes. the rest are research type things. So then I thought I would do cross registration at another school and have that on my transcript.
Please offer some advice. Desperate here.
