I think I have this narrowed down fairly well, but let me know if there are any egregious oversights.
cGPA: 3.58
sGPA: 3.55
MCAT: BS: 10, VR: 7, PS: 10 27
BS: 15, VR: 11, PS:10 36 taken 6 months later
ECs:
-4 year varsity athlete, all conference recognition, postgraduate scholarship award, other misc. recognition
-640 hours research, no pubs, multiple poster presentations (1 at international conference), honors for capstone thesis based on work
-100 hours volunteering as part of football and in a large non-profit
-approx 50 hours shadowing, multiple specialties, includes primary care
- 1400 hours clinical research, ongoing, involves a few hours a week at IR for biopsies, possible pubs during cycle
I'm a reapplicant. I applied prior to getting my initial MCAT score with a full list of schools like an idiot. Really poor choice. Did not complete any secondaries. A lot of improvement to app since then.
Huge Reaches: Case, Pitt, Duke
Reaches: OSU, Emory
Targets: Cincinnati, Toledo, Jefferson, Wake Forest, Tufts, Dartmouth
"Safeties": VCU, EVMS, Wright State, Indiana, Kentucky, Virginia Tech (aware of small class size and big research emphasis)
Thank you in advance!
