UC Berkeley MCB 3.75 GPA
MCAT 31Q
EC:
4 times leadership award winner for various community related programs
2 times deans list (3.93 and 3.95 gpa)
2 Yrs hospital volunteer at UCSF
1 yr research at UCSF oncology dept
1 yr teaching Math/Science at a church school
Summer job at a biotech company
Happy with GRE score: Quantitative 167, verbal 163 (wish I could be in this percentile on mcat)
Applied for MPH in top 8 schools. Awaiting response.
Trying hard to increase my GPA slightly up but it's a wishful thinking at UCB...ha ha ha
My ultimate goal is medical school and I feel could have done better in MCAT. Would appreciate your suggestion:
1. Should I try another shot at MCAT?
2. What are my chances for med school with all the above?
3. What are my chances for MPH admission in top 8 schools?
4. Will my chances increase for med school with MPH? I am not pursuing MPH just for the sake of med school but to understand health issues from macro level.
5. I am planning to apply to med school in 2014. Any advise on doing other interesting thing if I decide not to pursue MPH?
Thanks for your advise.
