3.9 cGPA/3.8 sGPA/29 MCAT

[mayo33]

Hi everybody! So I'm already pretty deep in the application cycle- meaning that all my secondaries are in (EXCEPT FOR ONE- I'M LOOKING AT YOU, HOWARD) and I've already received some interviews. I applied to 33 MD programs and 7 DOs. I'm primarily curious about where I stack up for MD programs.

My MCAT breakdown is: PS 10/BS 10/V 10, so it's low but balanced.
I've received IIs from 3 DO and 1 MD so far (LECOM-E, LECOM-B, UNECOM= DO, WVU= MD), but I was just complete in late Aug/early Sept (thanks to a late committee letter thanks to my school -_-) so I'm hanging out. I've been put on hold at Albany and GWU, and rejected at Meharry and Rosalind. I was WL post-interview at both LECOMs (which was at first very surprising).

I'm pretty proud of my ECs. 2.5ish years of lab research, >1000 hrs of shadowing, >100 hours of completed volunteering (but I'm currently in AmeriCorps so I've mentioned in almost all of my secondaries that, by July 2016, I'll have a combined total of >1800 hours of volunteering), 1 year as a student justice on my campus's SJP board, 1 year as VP of a mental health org on campus, 2 years TAing for orgo and a physio class, 2 years as a peer advisor in my campus's advising office. I'm Phi Beta Kappa too.

Schools I'm still waiting on:
MD:

VCU
Eastern Virginia
VTech
Oakland-B
UAlabama
Quinnipiac
Georgetown

Only apply to Alabama OOS if you have gone to Alabama or Auburn for your undergrad. Like @Goro said, they'll appreciate the donation otherwise.
