Hello,
I recently graduated from the University of Michigan with a B.S. in Neuroscience. cG.P.A. is a 3.4, with sG.P.A. around that (just slightly lower). MCAT was a 32, with a 10 physical, 11 verbal, and 11 bio (and a Q in writing, not that it matters anymore). I have decent volunteering experience, most of it being from greek life philanthropy in a professional sorority. 75-100 shadowing hours with a D.O. who wrote me an excellent LOR. I've spent the last year working full time at a retirement home, so lots of patient interaction. I also have a lot of research experience, including a study that focused on type 2 diabetes and osteoporosis. The other study, which I was more involved with, focused on women with PTSD and addiction and how it affected child attachment. I actually got to work with the moms and children during a weekly group session.
I guess I was just wondering how that looks for D.O. schools. I know my G.P.A. kinda ruins M.D. schools for me...
Thanks!
