Hey guys, jw what you think of my chances.... I applied to IU (instate), basically all of the Jesuit schools since I went to a Jesuit undergrad, and places like Nwestern, uchi, duke, etc

3.90 cGPA and 3.99 sGPA as a member of my school's honors program
MCAT percentiles for june were 85-100 in all sections and 90-100 total (meaning I am within the 516-528 range)
Will have over 850 hours for research (plus a research grant from my school), 280 hospital volunteering hours, 300 church volunteering hours, 70 at a soup kitchen, 100 at a museum by the time I graduate, over 5000 at my job, 350 hours as a school tutor, a couple of organizations, president of this other club
I have 5 letters composited into a committee letter and two extras from the one hospital i volunteer at (which are solid to very good)

The only thing is that I have something on my institutional record for breaking a paper towel dispenser in the dorm my freshman year.. I didn't get suspended or anything, just fined like 30 bucks and met with the residence director (who I would later develop a pretty good relationship with)

Your application seems great. Chances are high with a good list.

I'm probably going to fill out about 20-25 secondaries... I just hope that violation doesn't screw me

Unless it was some violent thing, I highly doubt it will do anything to screw you, at all.

Are you sure that's even an IA?

 

[pdouk76]

Yeah I guess. I just had to write a letter to each medical school I applied to detailing the situation and what not. Thanks for the feedback though! I'm hoping to hit over a 520 so I could have a legit chance at uchicago

What? Why?

 

[pdouk76]

I didn't know that it was on my record until after I sent in my primary so I had to in order to avoid looking sketch lol

But just to be clear, its nothing violent or something that speaks ill of your character right? Its just an accident that you broke it?

 

[pdouk76]

I definitely didn't mean to break it. Essentially, the paper towel dispenser was empty so I kinda gave a slap of frustration to it. I ended up turning myself later that day anyway. Also, I just spoke with this about my committee advisor and he doesn't think it'll be an issue

If you slapped the paper towel dispenser when you were angry, how will medical schools know you won't slap a patient when you are frustrated? Haha I'm just kidding, you have an amazing application and should aim fairly high!

Lol this is the most trivial IA I have ever heard of. You'll be fine.

Thanks guys... I'm sure you all know how neurotic med school applicants can get so I just needed to calm some nerves
