Hello, I'm currently a junior enrolled at Nova Southeastern University,originally I'm a transfer my student from a community college where I took my basic classes. I'm majoring in Biology. I honestly have no idea whether my grades/profile looks good so far. I need some feedback please.
GPA: It used to be 3.96 at the community college, however for some reason I didn't do well in my first semester at the university. My GPA right now for this semester (ONLY) is 3.55.
MCATS: I haven't taken my MCATS yet, I'm planning to take my MCAT in mysenior year and apply then with an additional year gap to get more volunteer hours. (+Time for work to pay loans). So, I'm 'planning' to get a high (>30)MCAT score.
Volunteer: I'm currently volunteering at the hospital (4 hours a week),although this is my first volunteer service. I've volunteered for a couple fund raising organizations in my first couple years of college.
Shadow: I have connections with a doctor I know and I'm planning on shadowing him next summer. I'm also planning on shadowing another doctor lateron.
Research: I'm doing a research that relates to sports medicine next Fall.
I honestly have no idea whether my status are good enough. I feel like I'm behind for some reason. I'm planning to do a research, a couple shadowing experiences, perhaps more volunteer on my gap year, raise my GPA and do my bestto prepare for the MCATS. Anything else I should keep in mind?
PS: I am an honor student.
