Hey guys,
I am new to posting but have received much advice from SDN in the past.
I would like to know how I weigh up vs. my competition.
I am a resident and student in South Carolina. I will be applying to MUSC, USC, and USC Greenville in-state as well as others OOS and several DO schools (VCOM). I am also able to apply to MCG as an in-state applicant due to my specific residence in SC.
cGPA: 3.45
sGPA: 3.40
My grades show an extremely strong upward trend and the only reason the GPAs are so low is thanks to my freshmen year.(very obvious on transcipt)
EC's:
EMT/First Responder on campus at university
2+ years of 911-EMS experience as an EMT-B/Crew chief in a high call volume area.
Shadowed several EM physicians for a total of 200+ hours
Traveled to MGH to shadow and volunteer in ER & OR
Volunteer at local medical clinic checking vitals, etc...
AED fundraiser chair
Many other organizations & volunteer work.
I will be able to get a few very strong LORs from attending EM physicians (some faculty) as well as professors.
My personal statement is stellar.
Thanks in advance for honesty
