Hey friends!
I'm applying this cycle and I want y'all to be straight with me.
I've got a cGPA of 3.92, a sGPA of 3.93, a graduate GPA of 4.0, and an MCAT score of 505 (124/125/126/130).
I've done over 1000 hours of community service, I've run two different clubs (Pride Alliance and Active Minds), I had the highest GPA in my college's graduating class, and I have around 100 hours with paid work in a clinical environment (I work as a peer monitor for an addictions facility). I have worked as a graduate assistant for the last year, and I have done some mental health counseling. I'm currently pursuing a master's in clinical mental health counseling, and I have made it very clear in my application that I want to be a psychiatrist. I have really excellent letters of rec. I have done around 500 hours of research in social psychology, and I have a first author poster presentation and a second author poster presentation.
So far I've applied to:
SUNY Buffalo
SUNY Downstate
Temple
Commonwealth
Central Michigan
Michigan State
University of Rochester
UVM
University of Connecticut
Drexel
Penn State
Albany Medical College
Loyola
NYIT
Touro
LECOM
(For reference, I am from NY, I went to undergrad in VT, one of my LOR has done substantial work with UConn and told me to apply there)
Please be brutal. Because I'm a mental health counselor/psych major, I never had any pre-med advisors, so I'm only going based off of MSAR and stuff like that.
