Hi! I am just getting a little nervous about the upcoming cycle and could appreciate some feedback.
I am a black female, graduating from uni this year, applying in June, and doing a competitive 1 year research postbacc during my gap year.
MCAT: 507 GPA 3.86. Hoping to apply to 15 MD schools and 10ish DO school. Preference MD. In a state with very few state schools, and the few they have have high average stats.
Do you think I have a good chance for MD. Application has lots of volunteer hours and scribing, with small gaps due to COVID limitations in shadowing. About 100 hours in shadowing, lots of teaching assistant/tutoring. Also a student counselor on campus. Won’t be able too discuss postbacc on primaries but will have for discussion during secondaries.
Any advice and encouragement appreciated. Really do not intend to retake mcat unless I do not make it into any schools first cycle, so please give advice other than to retake unless you do not see my odds being favorable.
