So any advice would be helpful. I am an SDN addict but this is my first time ever posting. I am really just trying to figure out my options and do not know what I should do next. Here are my stats and info:
I am finishing college early (I will be 20 when I graduate) and will graduate with a double major in Mathematics and Biochemistry. NJ resident but school in NC.
Stats:
cGPA: 3.7
sGPA: 3.6
MCAT: 28 (PS 9/ VR 9/ BS 10) --> main reason why I do not know what to do
- 250+ hours riding as an EMT on the rescue squad (180 hours of training to get EMT license)
- 40+ hours of shadowing (in OR and office)
- Medical brigade to Honduras (last summer)
- Vice President of a medical brigade to Ghana (this summer)
- A year of mathematical research and in the midst of publishing the paper (sent in to journals and next year my name will be on another paper)
- 4 semesters of being a Teaching/Lab assistant for Intro to Cell Biology
- Service chair for my fraternity
- 30 hours working at an open door clinic (front desk and paperwork)
- private tutor (80-100 hours probably)
- Decent scholarships and awards
- Starting Forward for Club Soccer (not sure how relevant that is)
- Studied abroad in Europe
- Good letters of Rec
- Good Personal Statement and Activities already written
So really I am lost in what to do next. I am really young and do not mind taking a year off and doing something else if I need but I would rather go straight to medical school. I am okay with either MD and DO. Does anyone have any advice on where to go from here. Honestly anything would be helpful. Do I apply? Do i do a post bacc program? Research? Take the MCAT again? Thanks in advance for helping!
