Hi everyone,
I'm posting in this forum to get your solid feedback on which schools I would have a direct shot at.
Stats:
Undergrad cGPA: 3.3
MPH Graduate GPA: 3.6
Graduated college: 2007
Last MCAT: 19 (August 2010)
MCAT test date future: July 2012
Work experience:
-Public Health consulting since 2009
Publications:
-Public health textbook chapter on maternal/child health
Activities:
-Boston hospital pre-med program
-Women's shelter volunteer
-Assistant editor academic journal at university
-Founding President of college club
-Research with WHO
**My plan is to submit AMCAS by June 22nd with one school choice, take the MCAT July 6th or 14th, scores back Aug 6th or 14th - add additional schools then. Some people telling July is way too late to take the MCAT.
***My main concern is that I need to rock the MCAT. I am pulling 23's on the AAMC practice exams.
*My goal is to look at schools that are interested in "older" applicants and that have a public health/ social mission focus.
Two questions:
-Which schools are those in your opinion and why? I really don't think I want DO.
-Is July too late? I'm confident that it isn't , but would like to hear your take.
THANKS
