I am now a junior year in a UC. I am planning to apply for med school on my fourth year. I made a stupid mistake on Spring 20 in my humanity writing course. The final exam was two take-home essays that restrict you cite course material sources only. I was copying/paste the materials from a website that interprets the book material, with one of my essay a similarity rate 15%. I was sanctioned by institutional action. Even if it is not on my official transcript, but it is on my school incidence file. May I ask how I can remedy this? I am having a GPA of 3.7, and now I am working on MCAT. Is there still possibility that some medical school wants me? I am considering to become a peer educator in my school academic integrity office. May extracurriclar activities demonstrate my maturity? How can I show my app to med school that I am trustworthy, and this is a mistake I learned from it.
