cGPA:3.55
sGPA: 3.3
Huge upward trend (had two bad semesters where I took too many science classes, my lowest gpa in the last four semesters was a 3.75)
MCAT: 26 on old test
509/128/127/127/127
Small liberal arts college for undergrad
Major: neuroscience
Minors: Physics, French
I was a physics major until my junior year so my courseload was very heavy in math and physics which brought down my gpa. I failed quantum mechanics the first time and had to retake but got an A the second time.
During the two bad semesters I had to withdrawal from a class, but it was 2 credits and was for the honors program which I dropped out of because I felt it was more work than it was worth.
I was a varsity swimmer for 4 years and also ran cross country and track for three seasons each. I have run two marathons since graduating college.
Alumni chair, then Social chair, then PR chair for my sorority, also was the homecoming candidate
Treasurer then president of the premed society
In four honors organizations, one of which I was the president
My undergraduate senior thesis is currently under review for publication and I am currently working at the NIH as a Postbac researcher.
I have a lot of shadowing and volunteer experience, including three medical mission trips.
I am a certified lifeguard and EMT, and so my summers were spent on an ambulance or guarding a pool. I saw three people get shot and helped to save them. Also delivered a baby.
The summer after my freshman year I studied abroad and I am pretty conversant in French.
What are my chances at MD schools?
