I would say slim, unless you first work in the allied health field. If you work as a radiologic technologist, respiratory therapist, surgical tech, nurse, social worker or psychologist your chances would be much better because the admissions committee would see that you are in fact serious about such a career. Your grades just don't show that you are worth them taking a risk on, frankly. I mean this constructively! You have no REAL experience in the field yet you want to be a dr. Many such jobs don't require more than 18 months of study, then if you work 2 years it would show true commitment.
