Chances?

[antispatula]

Im white, just graduated with a 3.96 gpa (science and overall are the same), got a 29 on the mcat (10ps 11bs 8vr) and here are my EC's:

Volunteer: 420 hrs (nursing home and crisis hotline operator)
Patient exposure: 243 hrs (ER volunteer and hospice volunteer)
Shadowing: 112 hrs (fm, anes, rheum, ortho, ophtho)
Research: 127 hrs (40 hrs endocrinology 87 hrs oncology)
Leadership:
-biology TA
-physics tutor
-elementary school tutuor
-sunday school president at local church
-music business club presidency member
-program director of administation of campus's student service organization
-music manager/producer for band I am in

I know that my 8 VR is kind of the thorn in my side in my application, but I dont plan on retaking the mcat. Also, I dont care where I get in, as long as I get into at least one MD school. I am a utah resident so I will for sure apply to the U of U. Chances of grtting into at least 1 md school? Thoughts?

Thanks!

you have a good chance as long as you apply broadly and early to a lot of new and low tier MD schools. I would say apply to 15+ MD schools if you can. Make sure you turn in your secondaries ASAP too.
