I think all your EC's and your GPA are competitive. You should start studying for the MCAT now and try your best to get as good of a score you can. I think you're doing very well but you just need the last piece of the puzzle, which is a good MCAT score. The well known SDN'ers won't be able to give you any great advice on here until you come back with a score.
