I have a good gpa/MCAT, two publications, double major, but a WF at a community college from freshmen year.
Other activities are fairly decent
- help assistant coach a sports team
- volunteering
- leadership in an organization
- tutoring/taing
- solid research
I'm a California resident so...
UC Davis
UC Irvine
UC San Fran
UC Los Angel
UC San Diego
USC
and I have relatives in Illinois so...
Northwestern
U of C
Loyola
Rush
Rosie
and for fun...
Harvard
Johns Hopkins
Columbia
etc.
My main concern is the WF; it hurts my gpa obviously, but my gpa is still solid, so shold I really be concerned about this WF that much? I got it at a community college, and my transcript from my undergrad doesn't even have it on there, but I'm submitting it to AMCAS nonetheless. Will those top tier schools screen me out b/c of the WF or will my gpa just take the hit and I may get a few questions about it in interviews. I have an explanation but unless asked, I wont really mention it
