Ok.. so I've finally got my MCAT score back and I think it's time for me to make a legit WAMC post for myself.. this is what I'm working with:
MCAT
512 (126/126/131/129)
87th percentile
GPA Breakdown (I have a very strong upward trend)
Freshman - 2.1 GPA, 1.8 sGPA (Former University)
Running to date - just what is stated above, 1st year and all... then transferred and lost some credits
Sophomore - 3.9 GPA (that year), 4.0 sGPA (that year)
Running to date - 3.0 cGPA, 2.4 csGPA
Junior - 3.7 GPA (that year), 3.5 sGPA (that year)
Running to date - 3.3 cGPA, 2.9 csGPA
Senior - 4.0 GPA (for 2 years), 4.0 sGPA (for 2 years) [currently taking a fifth year to finish coursework, received a 4.0 the fourth year with higher level BPCM coursework and projecting the same for the 5th year]
Final GPA - 3.5 cGPA, 3.4 sGPA
Specifics / ECs / Research / Employment
Biology & Psychology Double Major
Dean's List (All Semesters at Second University)
Cognition Laboratory Research (~250 hours)
1 Poster, Not-Presented personally, but at a National level conference
Founder/President/Senior Advisor of neuroscience organization on campus (800+ hours and will continue till May)
Shadowing of PNSG (~10 hours)
Watch Repairmen and Sales Rep (~1300 hours)
SAT Math Instructor for Company (~100 hours)
1-year Neuropsychology Clinical Research Internship Program followed by brief summer employment (~800 hours)
Distinguished Student Award from Academic Department
Molecular Pharmacology Laboratory Research (30+ hours [just joined and will continue till May])
The above information is chronological for the most part. I intend to have a couple dozen more shadowing hours before June and I will soon begin volunteering at a local hospital and expect to achieve ~200 hours of clinical volunteering before June. I also hope to actually present research at another conference in the coming year and I'm working on a paper that I will most likely be mid-author on. So... with all that said, what are my chances at what schools, what more should I do, and should I retake a 512?
