Public Health PhD

[citizen12]

Hi-

I am applying for Fall 2012 Public Health PhD programs next fall-winter and was wondering if anyone out there is as well.

My GPA should be around 3.5-4.0 by the time I apply and so far I have one RA job, a possible publication on the way, and

a 3.8 GPA in a public health certificate. My GRE score is 1200.

My only worry is that I have to retake Epidemiology next semester, I previously scored a B in that course during my public health certificate,

but now am wondering if retaking it during my MPH will hurt my chances of getting into the public health PhD program of my dreams.

Any thoughts?

B's in any public health course will certainly harm your chances, so definitely re-take it and get an A in the course.

I'd also be concerned with your GRE score, you should absolutely re-take that and get it up into the 1300's at the very least, particularly the quantitative section (shoot for at least 750+ there).
