Hi guys! I've been doing my homework and have somewhat struggled to narrow down my list given my kind of disparate stats:
CA resident, top 25 undergrad. Non-science double major
cGPA 3.75 sGPA 3.61
MCAT: 521 (130/129/130/132 so fairly balanced)
Volunteering: Plenty of clinical and non-clinical volunteering experiences (>500hrs total)
Research: 1.5 yrs with Global Health dept faculty, multiple projects & published once
Other ECs: pretty diverse - a capella, student gov't, sending people on medical missions, etc. I've held multiple strong leadership roles (eg captain, president, director), so I'd say I'm decent on those
Shadowing: >100hrs shadowing primary care, neurology, and (anticipated) EM doctors
I'm currently out of school and teach music. I also tutor students in biology and Spanish - did this and volunteered as I finished my last prereqs and studied for the MCAT. For the upcoming cycle I'm anticipating a position either interning with a medical practice or working for Americorps; still waiting to hear back post-interviews.
My school list is a mile long but tentatively
UC Irvine
UC Davis
UC San Diego
UCLA
UC Riverside (?)
University of Colorado
University of Cincinnati
USF Health Morsani
VCU
EVMS
SUNY - Upstate
Stony Brook University
Michigan State University College of Human Medicine
Albany Medical College
California Northstate
Rosalind Franklin (?)
Geisel @ Dartmouth
USC
Tufts
Tulane
Wake Forest
New York Medical College
Quinnipiac
Rush
Drexel
Emory
Georgetown
GWU
Advice and suggestions of all kinds are welcome! Thanks in advance
