Hi everyone, I'm a first-time, traditional MD applicant in my first gap year and I'm having some trouble deciding on which schools to apply to.
cGPA: 3.71
sGPA: 3.67
June MCAT: 90-100% total, 85-100% in psych/soc, bio/biochem, chem/phys, 76-91% CARS
Lots of research, no pubs
4 different music ECs
120 hours of shadowing 2 different physicians
150 hours working in hospital store
~1000 hours of working out, mostly in the last 2 years
3 stellar LOR
No volunteering unless early research volunteering can be classified as non clinical
I'm planning on applying to ~20 schools with a pretty even spread of admissions stats, probably more mid-tier, because I'm worried that my lack of volunteering and ECs are going to hurt my application.
