[Mr.Smile12]

Your nonclinical hours are very low and don't clearly show service orientation as defined by AAMC. You really need to get off-campus and serve others. Examples include food pantry or delivery, shelter work (women and children, LGBTQ, homeless, etc.), habitat or housing security, or job training for formerly Incarcerated.

What feedback has your advisor and committee given you?

My advisor told me that I should be fine and that’s she seen students with less Ecs get in

Where did they get accepted (from the ones on your list)? I can tell you none of the programs I have worked with will consider you for an interview (based on the information given) so if there are others, point them out from your list. Trust but verify.

You also cannot compare with others unless you know how they got with the schools.

I am not sure, I was just basing this off of the information that she had given me.
