Hello all. I would greatly appreciate it if you guys looked over my school list. Thank you.
URM
BCPM: 2.79
CGPA: 3.04
(these are my calculations from the 2013-2014 cycle)
Since the last cycle, I have taken 16 credits of graduate coursework, all upper division science, and have a 4.0. I hope this is enough to prove that I can handle the medical coursework.
MCAT: 30Q - 11VR 9PS 10BS
Work/Activities
450 hrs volunteer laboratory research technician (did not have any research experience last app cycle)
100 volunteer non-clinical (new)
120 physician shadowing hours (some new)
450 hours intern in hospital
420 hours as a PT tech (new experience)
800 hours through AmeriCorps (non-clinical)
260 hours as a coach (leadership) (new)
150 hours volunteer clinical
250 hours with a biology society at my undergraduate college (various volunteer work)
600 hours as a club founder and president at my undergraduate college - (leadership)
LOR:
1 from an undergraduate professor, probably just okay
1 from the national chapter of the club I started on my campus - strong
1 from interning in cardiopulm. rehab - strong
1 from pt tech - strong (new)
1 from research - probably good (new)
1 from graduate professor - strong (new)
LIST:
Creighton
Tufts
Boston University (I heard they appreciate applicants that improved GPA)**
Rush
Medical College of Wisconsin - Milwaukee
University of Colorado (this is my big reach school, but it would be nice to be near home)
Quinnipiac
University of Nevada (their website says they consider AZ applicants)
EDIT: **will probably replace with Loyola
Thank you for any advice!
