No particular trend in GPA.
First MCAT: 23 9/7/7
Second MCAT: 518 131/127/129/131
Race/Gender: White/Female

~1.5 years working as an associate software developer for a large HMO.
~300 hour medical volunteering trip to Peru
~120 hours shadowing 2 physicians. One was pediatrician in family medicine. The other experience was in a nursing home with a geriatric physician.
~150 hours volunteering in hospitals.
~100 hours volunteering as an English tutor at a safe house for immigrant minors
~100 hours volunteering at a center for disabled adults.
~60 hours volunteering in a nursing home.
~40 hours of research in a laboratory.
