  1. Thank you for your response, eteshoe!
  2. Hi, I am looking for some advice. I graduated with a degree in Molecular and Cellular Biology in December 2014. I always thought I would attend medical school, so my undergraduate experience was more tailored to applying medical school. I have a 3.60GPA, but unfortunately no research experience. I am looking around for some research tech positions, but they are hard to find/get. My current job involves lab work as I work in lab where we extract drugs from samples for drug abuse testing. I haven’t yet taken the GRE. It seems like I would have a stronger chance to get into a PhD program after attending a Master’s program. It would allow me to gain research experience and meet faculty that could actually write strong letters of recommendation for me. However, I would have to start that later in my life as I am currently paying off my undergraduate student loans and would have to raise money to attend a Master’s program. It would take me about 3.5 years to raise enough money for both at my current job. That time off from school is daunting to me. What would you do in my situation? Thanks!
