Junior year - 3.666 (still disappointed, but I am determined to get a 4.0 at least one semester.

Please let me know what you think my chances are, if there are any additions/deletions I should make, general premed advice, etc. I live in the NE and the only "connections" I have are acceptances to Baylor and UPitt undergrads.

I don't know anything about any of these but you should add the STAR program at GRU/MCG to the list if location is not a concern.
