Hi,
I am a student who goes to a top public university. I had planned on going to medicine coming in, but I failed miserably. I was very persistent in going to med school and had taken science classes my entire first year. I am a transfer student, so I am spending 3 years at this school. Because of the science grades, I have a 2.434 gpa, but my major (social science) gpa is a 3.59. However, my GPA has been good so far (3.5 and above), but because of the science grades it is really low. I am also involved in various clubs and extracurricular activities, and am currently an ambassador for a company. If I get a good GMAT score, would there any way that I can get into a top school like UCLA or USC? I am also interested in entrepreneurship, as I am making my own start up company, which I know UCLA is known for. Any advice would be much appreciated.
