Hi! My first two years were at a local community college where I completed BIO, CHEM & Physics. I have not taken calculus, I completed 2 semesters of math, one being statistics.

I did really poorly in high school so I was forced into the Community College route, I'm hoping it doesn't ruin my chances.

My ECs are fairly basic nothing really impressive.

  • Volunteering at local hospitals ~ 300 hours
  • Shadowing ~ 150 hours, mainly Cardiologists, but Family Doctor and Allergist as well. (Mom is head of nurses in Cath Lab)

I have 3 LORs two of which are fairly strong with the other being just OK

I lack research as I generally was working most of the time after school.

(10/10/10) MCAT

I really would love a school list as I'm completely lost and I have no idea what is within my reach, also if I need to add any ECs or not before I apply.

@Goro, Thanks for the list! I appreciate it greatly! Yeah I know my MCAT wasn't as good as I was expecting. I probably should've prepared more, was debating retaking it.
