Hello!
I am currently a junior and will be applying to osteopathic medical school this cycle! I am looking for advice of schools to take off my list and to add on. My current stats are as follows:
cGPA: 3.54
sGPA: 3.45
MCAT: I am taking it April 18, however I expect my score to be around 507-512. I have taken multiple TPR practice exams and have scored slightly below this range, but I have heard from many that the TPR tests tend to be more difficult than the actual MCAT. I have taken the AAMC practice exam and scored 510.
Extra Curricular: Member of Phi Kappa Psi fraternity for 2.5 years (Philanthropy and Recruitment chairs)
Approximately 1000 CNA clinical hours in an alzheimer's unit
Member of Timmy Global Health for 2 years
Member of a Pre medical association for 2 years
Member of the Kinesiology club (Held Recruitment chair as well)
Volunteer: Approximately 400 volunteer hours, including 160 of those hours tutoring inner city high school students, and 120 of those hours traveling to Tuscaloosa, Alabama to help rebuild homes for the tornado victims. I was also a part of my school's service scholarship program.
LOR: 2 science (Microbiology and Organic chemistry professors. The organic chemistry professor is the undergrad chem department head)
1 non-science (Sociology professor)
M.D. and D.O. letters
Director of Nursing at the nursing home I currently work at.
My school list is:
West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine
AT Still University (Both Kirksville and Arizona)
Pikeville
Lincoln Memorial
Lake Erie (All schools)
Philadelphia (Pennsylvania campus)
Liberty University
William Carey University
Campbell University
If I could get advice on what schools to take off and what schools to add, that would be greatly appreciated! Please keep in mind I am trying to only apply to schools I have a very good chance at. I am a 21st century scholar recipient, and I do not have much money to spare with chance schools such as Michigan State. Once again, thank you for your input!
