Hey everyone,
I got a 2.8 first and second year, 3.3 third year and aiming for a 3.8 fourth yr. I got 506 (71st) on the MCAT first try and doing it again. I am sure I can do much better. I had was battling mental health issues my first two years of uni and hence had a hard time doing well in school-which made my health even worse as a pre-med. But since I've gotten better(third yr), you can see the drastic upward trend.
I've done:
-research, presented at a conference, submitted posters and abstracts to conferences as well.
-started my own group based on funding won at a health symposium aiming to increase students living in residences' health
-Residence life staff for two years
-Shadowed a physician
-Volunteered at hospital
-Regularly perform at cultural shows/lead dance events
-peer mentoring at the university to freshman students
-Nominated for several awards in residence
And probably some other things here and there that I can't remember. My prof and I are also possibly going to be working on a manuscript to be submitted for peer review as well.
What are my chances for MD schools in US/Can? Caribbean?
Please no negativity! I've had enough of that lol. I don't mind "your chances are slim, you should try 'X' " but please no "you'll never get in anywhere".
