Hi everyone! I would appreciate some feedback on my school list for the 2024-2025 cycle. I consider myself a fairly average applicant without any standout extracurriculars. While I do have a few plans for my 2 gap years, if you notice any major weak points in my applicant profile as it currently stands, please let me know! Overall, I'd love suggestions for additional schools to consider. My main goal right now is to gauge where I stand with my general application and preferred programs. I apologize if my applicant profile is slightly vague at parts, I tried my best but didn't know how much to include.
Applicant Profile:
GPA: cGPA: 3.77, sGPA: 3.76 (Note: Excluded some "independent study" classes; including them would bring my sGPA to around 3.80).
MCAT: MCAT Score: 517 (127/128/128/132)
State of Residence: CT
Clinical Experience: 1 year as a medical assistant in an outpatient clinic (Projected ~1500 hrs)
Research Experience: Conducted a translational research project at a local medical institution, obtaining independent IRB approval and writing code for statistical analysis. Honors thesis submitted to two conferences.
Shadowing: Shadowed in Endocrinology, Emergency Medicine, and Dermatology. Plan to shadow in outpatient orthopedic surgery and in-patient psychiatry. Projected 70+ hours by May 2024.
Non-clinical Volunteering: Volunteer at the local library; anticipate 200 non-clinical hours by May 2024. My work primarily consisted of running evening programming for the children's library and archiving historic documents.
Other Extracurricular Activities: Microbiology TA and leadership in DEI programs (Board Member who directed DEI education for ~1200 women)
Relevant Honors or Awards: Writing award from the school department.
