Hi Everyone,
I am currently debating whether I should retake my MCAT or apply this next cycle and see what happens... I know my MCAT is my weakest area, but just wanted to get your opinion on where I should apply if I choose to do so.
-4.0 cGPA
-200 hours clinical volunteering
-800 hours clinical job as an Emergency Department Scribe
-350 hours non-clinical volunteering (President of a community service fraternity and leading/implementing a spring break trip focused in rural health care)
-55 hours of shadowing (felt like my job as a scribe made up for this)
-2 Publications and a summer undergraduate research experience in neuro-oncology
-Very strong LORs from faculty and physicians
-Female Asian, Oregon Resident, very strong commitment to diversity and personal statement
I have always leaned more towards M.D due to my background in research. Should I even apply and what schools should I apply to?
