M.A. or M.S. for PsyD?

I'm a senior in college, I'm getting my bachelor's in psychology with a minor in cognitive science. I want to eventually be a forensic psychologist, and I want to work in the field, so I was looking in to getting a PsyD. However my GPA is only 2.98, and my professors have been letting me know that my chances of getting into a clinical psychology program are slim. However one of my professors said that instead of immediately going for a PsyD, I could get my Master's first, and build up my GPA... M.A. or M.S. for PsyD?
