GPA 3.94, MCAT 516
white male, CA resident
I can detail more about my app, but in general terms I'll say that I do have the "boxes checked," aside from my research over a 3 year period not resulting in a publication. There is certainly not a lack of clinical experience as both a scribe and EMT. There is a good deal of both clinical and non-clinical volunteering as well. I am a non-science major and integrated this with my interest in medicine in two very distinct ECs that would be considered interesting/topical. I'm non-trad (community college to state school) and took 3 gap years (1 planned, 2 from MCAT false starts), which are somewhat accounted for in my app.
I had 7 IIs (including two T10) resulting in 3 WL (all upper mid-tier) and 4 post-II Rs
I've gone through some personal trauma recently, an untimely death in my immediate family. I tried to keep it together, but it likely impacted my interview performance. My advisor says that given the strength of my application my prospects for getting off WL are good (all 3 schools would be expected to have significant movement), but nothing is assured.
Should I start making moves to reapply now? If so, where should I start? If not, how long should I wait? Thanks
