Just wondering what people thought my chances were.
I am a non-traditional applicant, as I am 32 and a lawyer. As I said in the subject line, I have a 31 Q MCAT- 9 PS (ouch a little), 10 BS, 12 Verb. I have a 3.5 overall GPA, a 3.7 science GPA, and a 3.93 post-bacc GPA (all of the prerequisites). If it makes any difference I finished in the top 40% of my law school class, and made law review.
I decided to go through this process late in 2006, started my post-bacc in 1/2007 and finished in 12/2008. For the last year and a half, I have been working as a scribe in my local ER, interviewing patients about their medical histories, present illness, as well as taking vitals and helping doctors with some procedures. In addition, I have been working full time as a lawyer while taking my prerequisites.
I'm a Virginia resident, and really am only looking at the 3 MD programs instate (UVA, VCU and EVMS). I will be submitting my applications in the next day or too (I know, earlier would have been better). What do you all think?
