Hi guys! I am just wondering if my school list looks okay. Along with the stats (cGPA is 3.66) I posted as the title, my ECs in school were:

Research: Biology/Organic Chemistry: 1 year for each topic
Mentor for science outreach camp during the school year: Mentored at 3 events
Student Council for science college: 2 years, became an officer in my last year
Won several small awards for the research I did
Proctored for chemistry department
Volunteered at hospital for 100 hrs+
Volunteered as a library assistant for 2 summers
Research Intern at Celgene DMPK department: 300+ hrs.
I submitted my app and I am pretty much done with secondary apps.
I am currently taking a gap year in which I hope to shadow a doctor/volunteer at a hospital along with finding a job somewhere.

GPA had two downward trends during my 4 years but managed to raise it the following semesters.

No clinical experience?

What do you exactly mean by clinical experience? I volunteered at a hospital and worked with patients but I have not shadowed a doctor. Thanks gyngyn
 
Delete Brown as they heavily favor their own UGs. BU is in striking distance, but you might have better luck at Penn State, NYMC, Albany, Rowan, Temple, Va Tech, Loyola and Rosy F. Also suggest get some shadowing experience ASAP, lest schools think you have no idea of what a doctor's day is like.
