My son is senior at Cornell. He is a biology major with a 3. 6 - 3.65 GPA. He recently took his MCAT and scored a 35 (13bio/13ps/9v). He is involved with a ton of extras with tutoring on math and sciences, senior tribune at his frat, works during summers at the coroners office, has done over 500 hours of volunteer hospital work, etc. He is still loading himself up with credits during his senior year...with 22 credits in labs and other classes this semester. His plan is to take a gap year and work for both the coroners office as well as working at a local hospital.
He would like to go to a NY medical school and his reach school is Weil Cornell in Manhattan.
His other contenders are:
NYU
Albert Einstein
Upstate
Hofstra
Columbia
He has the MSAR website and has been starting to do more research...but still has time before applying.
Question from a inquisitive dad...what are his chances in the schools listed and do you have any recommendations.
Thanks to all in advance.
