Hi all, just looking for some advice and opinions. So I am on track to finish my BS in biology in 2015 (3 years of undergrad total). I am part of a combined bs/md program with my state school so getting into a medical school isn't an issue. However, the program allows me to apply out to other programs with no consequences on my guarantee. So my question is will I be at a disadvantage when applying to top tier schools by doing 3 years of undergrad and taking a gap year to travel and work in a lab. Or should I stick it out another year in undergrad and pick up a minor or a major.
Some of my stats:
GPA: currently a 4.0
MCAT: 37
ECs: 200+ hours of volunteering, 80+ hours of shadowing, 1.5 years of research experience, various student organizations
Thanks for the advice and opinions
