Hello! I know my stats are not phenomenal, but I am a Tennessee resident applying to UTHSC Memphis, ETSU, and UAMS (Little Rock).
MCAT 30, PS: 9 VR: 12 BS: 9
Clinical hours: 400 translating in a clinic in Haiti, approx 70 in various clinics in Memphis
No research
I worked with inner city children in high school via summer camps and tutoring
Extracurrics: I graduate in May with a B.F.A. in Musical Theatre and a B.A. in French and International Development. Was also hugely involved with dance, theater, and orchestra throughout high school
I feel like I'm "interesting" enough but I don't want the less-than-stellar science GPA to give them pause (I have a smattering of A's and B's and one C in genetics...) This is because I took massive loads every semester (20-26 credit hours) to fit in the triple major with pre-med
Also I am in-state for TN.
I guess my main worry is that I haven't shown a super strong science background, and even though I have a lot of extra stuff to maybe make up for it, I don't want them to think I'm not right for med school/wouldn't be able to succeed/etc. What do you guys think? UTHSC is my top choice
