Hello,
I am a 22M who recently graduated from UCLA with a degree in Psychobiology. I am currently in the middle of the current medical school application cycle- I strictly applied MD as I am primarily interested in pursuing allopathic medicine.
I am a CA resident
I have a 3.41 sGPA and a 3.47 cGPA.
I have 3 MCAT scores: 498, 505, 509.
I have 1792 Clinical Hours (Emergency Room Scribe, General Hospital Volunteering), 321 Community Service Hours (Soup Kitchen, Campus Clubs, Wheelchair Basketball Volunteer/Coordinator), 3019 Non-Clinical Hours (Patient Service Coordinator).
I initially applied with 4 LORS: 1 Emergency Medicine MD Director, 2 Science Professors, 1 Non-Science Professor.
- I recently obtained another MD LOR from a well-renowned hip and knee replacement orthopedic surgeon with whom I with. (recently sent to schools)
I am currently in a gap year, worked full time at an orthopedic institute in a health administrative/customer service/receptionist role. I am about to terminate my employment here and am pursuing a research role or direct medical assisting role.
I applied and submitted secondaries to 32 MD programs. Currently with 5 pre-interview rejections (Albany, Tulane, UACOM-P, MSUCHM, WVUSOM), 1 pre-interview hold (UACOM-Tucson), and 0 II.
I know the cycle is still early and my stats will most likely not attract early interview invites, and I am steadfast on pursuing strictly MD. With that said, what can I do to positively impact my application moving forward?
I appreciate any constructive feedback as well as positive sentiments!
