Ok I have read a lot of posts on here but I have not bothered to post my own until today since I just got my MCAT score back.

My cGPA is 3.73 with an extremely strong upward trend. Started with a 2.7 and 4.0 since.
(I was working 60 hours a week during the 2.7 semester and the C came because I misbubbled a test resulting in a 40)

My MCAT was a 36M (11VR, 12BS, 13PS)

I did a Management and Leadership internship my freshman year and was named Texas Intern of the Year and was given a promotion to be a District Manager in charge of following year interns. (I had 10 personal employees as an intern)

I have worked in three different labs over the course of 2 years. (Two of my letters coming from PIs - one PI from a med school and one PI from my University whom was also a prof)

I have 75+ hours volunteering at local hospital and several random day long service projects

I did a week long mission trip with my church over the first summer (haven't gone back due to summer classes)

I have 30-40 hours of shadowing (3 specialties) (Had 500+ in high school so I didn't find it relevant to stock up in college)

Three strong reference letters and all the regular miscellaneous things every app has such as Dean's list and a Premed Honor Society.

If anyone has any suggestions about where I can improve or what I am majorly lacking in my application it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much for yalls time!

I also forgot the mention that I am a Texas resident and would like to attend medical school in Texas but I will also apply a few places outside of Texas.

Anyone know of any schools I would have a shot at outside of Texas and would recommend?

Thanks again!

I think you should get into a TX school. They are in their own little world down there. I would concentrate on them more, especially if you want to stay in Texas.

Thanks for the input, they kinda are their own small medical cult.. Appreciate the reply

I would say just hold a job, volunteer here and there, and relax.

That is what I have been thinking to do, I just got a job beginning in the summer as a full time lab tech.

Also I just wanted to say I freaking love the quote in your signature. Definitely will use that in the future.
