Hello!
I'm in the midst of applying to medical school right now, and I just wanted to get some insight from you guys about my competitiveness since I feel that I have a very contradictory application. I have a 3.4 GPA, with a 3.2 science GPA, which I know is low. But, I scored a 36 on my MCATs ( I knew I had to do well to make up for the gpa). I kind of have a reason for the low GPA because of one bad semester. I took on a job that just took too much time away from studying. I'm pretty involved on campus. I volunteer at the hospital, help tutor kids from the inner city, worked at the newspaper for a little while, and am the treasurer of my Honors COllege. So, I just wanted to know what are my chances of getting in somewhere. I'm from maryland and I'd really like to go Maryland medical school or somewhere in D.C like GW or Georgetown. Anyways, thanks guys and good luck in medical school!
