Hello! First time applicant, and I just wanted to get an advice from the experts now that I think I have a school list based on some research (where I want to go, etc).
Age: 23
MCAT: 504 (126/124/127/127)
cGPA: 3.95 sGPA: 3.984
Ethnicity: Asian (Green card holder) - ORM (Korean)
State of residency: Colorado
EC: I worked as a Teaching Assistant for 2 semesters (120 hours), Internship as a Research Assistant at the University hospital - Anschutz Medical campus (120 hours)
Volunteer: Church youth group leader for two summers (60 hours), After school Tutoring as a I Have A Dream Foundation volunteer at my old high school where 48% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch (36 hours so far, because school shut down due to the coronavirus), Emergency Room volunteer (55 hours so far, again all volunteer canceled due to coronavirus), Volunteer at Agape Safe Haven (homeless shelter, 24 hours so far)
Shadowing: Total of 48 hours - Doing 4 more hours this week. Mostly with Plastic Surgeon (my role model and DO), and some time with Radiologist (MD), Family medicine (MD).
School list: DO - RVUCOM - CO (My first choice and already wrote secondary for this school), CUSOM, MSUCOM, DCOM, LECOM, KCU-COM, PCOM
MD - This is where I have most trouble with because of my stats. But, I am trying out for Colorado, Oakland Beaumont, TCU-UNT.
If you guys think I should add more schools, please let me know and which schools I will do the research after. I know my stats aren't the greatest but its why I am asking for an advice!
Thanks.
