4.0 cGPA, 4.0 sGPA, 500 MCAT (only taken once)
Very upset about the low mcat score. I have always been a bad standardized test taker, but I also didn't do much studying (only about a month). Thought about retaking but currently in a research program, so won't have time to study to do considerably better
Extracurricular activities:
- Research: Three summer research programs (after Freshman year, Sophomore year, and currently participating in one); co author on paper submitted for review; several poster presentations
- Leadership: founder and president of two organizations (one of the organization is geared toward promoting diversity in premed students); undergraduate representative on a selection committee; SNMA fellow
- Physician Shadowing: 4 doctors ( over 100 hours)
- Tutor/ teaching: Lab teaching assistant (over 500 hours); Science tutor (50 hours)
- Volunteering: Unique volunteer position at local medical school (over 100 hours); Volunteer with local service organization( over 100 hours)
- Awards: Travel grant; two research scholarship awards
I am applying only MD; App already submitted.

Wayne state

What are my chances? And should I included any other schools to increase my chances?
