Hey everybody. I am new to SDN and looking to get some advice on which schools would be in my range with the following credentials:

African American
511 MCAT (127/127/128/129)*
3.9 GPA in Medicinal Biochemistry BS at Arizona State University (currently a junior, 21 years old)
500+ hours as an ER scribe
500+ hours as a track and field coach
150 hours volunteering for a black scholarship fund since the 8th grade
Some ride-along experience with my father's crew (he is a Phoenix fire captain)
60 Hours Shadowing an ER physician in a small clinic

*Edited my actual MCAT score.

You are a fine candidate for both of your state schools. Look in the MSAR for any OOS privates with a 10th percentile around 29.
Get some primary care shadowing. 40 hours will do.
Add all the HBCU affiliated medical schools.

The MCAT I posted for the original thread was actually from my first AAMC FL. My actual MCAT score is 511 (127/127/128/129). I also picked up 60 hours of shadowing at a small emergency center. The schools I would really like to attend are UCLA or USC. What do you think my chances are at these schools considering I have no research experience?
