Hi! I am a white female and New York State resident. I just completed my undergrad in NY and am taking a gap year. I'd appreciate any recommendations regarding my school list (I’m aiming for around 30-35 schools total)
Stats:
cGPA: 3.91
sGPA: 3.87
MCAT: 519 (129/127/132/131)
Work/Activities:
-400 hours MA at family practitioners office, phlebotomist, and volunteering in a hospital (working full time during gap year to get ~500 hours as MA + phlebotomist at same family practitioner’s office)
-950 hours of research through FRI program and independent study with a focus on Alzheimer’s disease and neurological and endocrine disorders (2 posters, 1 capstone presentation)
-100 hours shadowing family practitioner and OBGYN
-100 hours non-clinical volunteering at a food warehouse / 250 hours at a Compassionate Care Central New York (a day program for veterans and the underserved population suffering from traumatic brain injuries)
-2 leadership positions in a sorority
-250 hours as a teaching assistant for chemistry, research, and biology / 200 hours as a tutor for physics
-100 hours working an on campus job
-Phi Beta Kappa honor society
Please let me know thoughts on what to add/remove! This is my list as of right now, but I’m not sure if there are any schools I should take off and if I am missing some schools I might have a higher chance at:
Albany Medical College
Albert Einstein College of Medicine
Boston University
Case Western Reserve University
Chicago Medical School at Rosalind Franklin University
