You're at best a cookie cutter applicant, but the truth is that your research is severely lacking and you haven't shown any leadership or desire to volunteer outside the medical setting.
If you honestly believe that DO "won't cut it," I suggest you re-apply. Yes, you put in money, but is it worth to you saving a few thousands now compared to the lifelong letters behind your name that you aren't particularly fond of?
I don't know why people always say this. There are plenty of people who don't do research at all (and they post about that on here every time someone asks "is research necessary?") or had minimal research when they realized it wasn't for them.
