I am applying after I graduate so I will have a gap year. I have decided with that year to continue my research in diabetes. I have great LOR and pretty exciting research(as anyone applying to medical school would post on this website I would like to apply as an MD/PhD student. Here are my stats.
GPA: 3.86 Cum 3.87 Sci
MCAT: 34 (13,10,11)
600 hours as a Personal Care Provider
700 hours patient intake and psych testing at a NeuroPsych office.
2 year service mission in Iowa for church
~800 hours of research in diabetes lab with thesis in process
eagle scout
Applied Math &BCH major & Business minor
I understand that there is a much different career path of an MD/PhD than an MD. My brother-in-law is actually in an MD/PhD program in San Antonio and I am not looking for information on whether I should do MD/PhD or not. Here is my question:
With an MCAT of 34, which is slightly under the national median for matriculated MD/PhD students, I am having trouble finding the programs that I would be a competitive candidate for. Does anybody have a reference that I can use to find acceptance scores? So far I'm considering
Tucson
Utah
Colorado
Iowa
UNC
San Antonio
USC
Vanderbilt
What suggestions do you have SD? Should I add some schools, or remove others?
