Greetings,
I am contemplating whether to apply this year or not.I will appreciate your honest opinion...I am more of a "unique" applicant so I will make it brief but with enough info.
1.Undergraduate Biochem major in African University(Did most prerequisites there,but I know I need to take them in an American institution).
2."Moved" to U.S. and granted asylum...transferred some credits to state University(senior).
My stats are:
EC:About 20 hrs hospital volunteer,2 years full time CNA.Recording artiste(Poetry and rap).Volunteer,etc.
SHADOWING:Ongoing,30 hours so far
RESEARCH:None
MCAT:Registered for may,hoping to get decent score considering I have a strong science background.
GPA:About 3.79-3.86 when I apply(depending on this semester)
PREREQUISTES:Only 1 year Bio/Lab,One semester Physics,One semester English completed.Few Upper division science classes.
Should I apply this year or wait to boost my credentials.I am not setting my sights on top tier schools,but I want to know if I have a chance anywhere??
