I am a senior, female, studying Biochemistry, and I am planning to apply to med school next year. I moved to the US when I was 14 and English is obviously my second language. I got my A.A. from a community college and then transferred to the best university in my state. I currently have 3.80 GPA, with sufficient hours of volunteering/Shadowing experience, and I'm planning to take the MCAT in Feb.
First, how much does it matter to medical schools that I've been through war, and should I emphasize this in my personal statement?
Second, from what I mentioned about myself, is it safe to say I have a decent chance of getting accepted somewhere?
