Sounds like me
Yeah, right.

you forgot something in the arts. Like, violin prodigy who debuted in Carnegie Hall. Varsity athlete is boring. How about a cool sport like skiing or hang-gliding instead?
btw, WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF DOING THIS? To make ourselves feel worse?!
and I KNOW there are people on SDN right now who have a profile like this... I hate you guys!!

Those people exist. They also win Rhodes Scholarships:

Elected to Phi Beta Kappa as a junior, Jeff Ishizuka is a Williams College 1960's Scholar in chemistry and has held several research assistantships. At Williams he worked on a project, funded by the National Science Foundation, deriving mathematical models for chaotic molecular behavior. He has also co-authored a paper for first year students (now submitted for publication) introducing the concepts of non-linear dynamics. Jeff studied at Oxford in his junior year on the Williams-Oxford Programme where, as a research assistant in physical chemistry, he predicted unknown energy levels in a vibrational-rotational spectrum of FeH and assigned portions of FeH's spectrum. An Eagle Scout, Jeff has received distinction as a scholar-athlete at Williams, where he was a varsity wrestler. He has also served as a writing tutor at Williams and worked with asylum seekers from Kosovo as part of Oxford's REACH UP program. While volunteering at Montaa de Luz hospice for children with HIV/AIDS in Honduras, Jeff managed and translated for volunteer construction teams, computerized and updated projects and finances, developed environmental plans, and administered the hospice for two weeks in the director's absence. He has also co-authored a successful grant proposal to assist the work of the hospice. Jeff writes poetry and has played classical piano for 15 years (enjoying Brahms and Chopin in particular).
(Formulaic, eh?)

I don't think that an ADCOM would dock you any points for saving someone's life 👍
the perfect med school resume goes like this:
3.0 gpa
28-30 mcat
some arbitrary short term volunteering
no research
1 acceptance
This outlines how to get into med school using the minimal effort plan. Why bust your ass for a 4.0 when you can get a 3.0 and still get in?

Also, if you led a revolution wouldn't you have killed at least one person? I don't think Ghandi would be cool with that. Also, wasn't the architect of each pyramid killed after it was finished so that nobody knew the way in or out?

I know its not as good as a lot of the SDN poster's resumes, but its a start.
Pretty dumb thread IMO.
God-level necrobump. 👍
Back in 2004, a godly MCAT was 34. Today, SDN members retake 34s so they can get that 39.

I had a better distribution than OP's dream score lol. If I could take that score back in time to 2004 I'd probably be an attending at Harvard right now.
Not to be a b**** but there is no reason to over dramatize the difficulty of getting into med school. Despite popular SDN belief, regular people with 3.5/30 do get in...quite often....
Is it tough? Sure. Is it impossible? Not even close.
As the economy recovers, I'd expect the competitiveness to stabilize or perhaps even decrease a tad.

lol yea. Med School admissions are so much harder now than they were in 2004.
There are also a lot of people with 3.5/30 who dont get in either though.
Holy Necrobump.
