I read SDN every day and would love to have a thread that is purely just a compilation of statistics from all of you that have been accepted to any college. This would be great to see what it takes to be competitive in the present. I know theres a bunch of questions in threads about this but there isn't one dedicated. Your help is much appreciated, thanks in advance!

What was your GPA, MCAT, and EC's ?

Not sure what my total GPA was, since I have had an outrageous amount of classes, and my original major got me a studio art degree. I had some shaky semesters, and art professors never give out A's. You think organic chem is hard.

However, my post bacc GPA, in which I did all my prereqs, was a 3.8.
MCAT: 29Q and 30Q.

I am going to NSU COM.
 
Going to COMP in the fall:
MCAT 28Q
GPA 3.5
Science GPA 3.9
EC's: NCAA volleyball, SCVA volleyball, peer mentor, hospital volunteer, volunteer for ms society and tnt, college mascot, worked part-time throughout college, 1 year post-bacc at NIH, 2 years of cardiology research, shadowed DO (cardiology) a couple of days.
That's it! Just go for it! : )
