Hey there!
So my cum. GPA is 3.42 (last 4 semesters were 3.7+), sGPA of 3.4, and a 36 MCAT.
Major: B.A. in Biology and Economics
Member of Omicron Delta Epsilon (Economics Honor Society)... does that help at all?
By the time I apply I will have 250-300 hours of volunteering in the ER/hospital, half of which is from working in a clinic in South Africa (don't really know if thats particularly looked highly upon or not). Also have ~40 hours of shadowing right now. Will also have a about 12 months of working as a medical scribe by the time I apply next year.
I have 2.5 years of research experience, one year was essentially volunteer, is a physiology lab. Also a part of that is marine bio research abroad.
Service/Leadership- Eagle Scout (=volunteer+leadership), different volunteer projects while abroad.
So overall, how competitive would you say I am? Do I have a shot of getting into an MD school? And is there any advice you could give for my application?
