Hi all,

This is my first post and I would like your input on my chances of being accepted into medical school
I have a 3.72 cumulative GPA, 3.6 science GPA (as calculated by AMCAS) and a 28 MCAT. I do not plan on retaking the test for this cycle.

-Shadowed ortho surgeon for 100 hours, currently shadowing primary care physician (60 hours so far)
-4 years of research in the same lab (600+ hours)
-Volunteer at an elementary school (4 hrs/week) for 1 semester so far. Planning to return
-Employed for 4 years in food service, currently employed in tech support (3 years) for about 10 hrs/week

Quick questions:

1. Have you submitted your Primary Application yet? (you're applying this cycle right?)
2. Are you talking about MD or DO school?
3. What state are you from?
4. Do you have a school list?
5. What's the breakdown of your 28? (some schools screen below a 7)

Answering these will probably help people get a better idea.

MSAR Online is your friend. Let's see your list. Start with U MD and VCU. Forget the Ivies, the UCs, and Stanford.
