I'm an undergrad at UCSD. Transferred in as a Junior. URM. Reinvented nontrad (late 20s).
I will likely need a year after graduating to build my application (volunteer and clinical hours). I would love to stay here but obviously understand it's a top Medical school...I understand that it is very competitive...and I do have a poor academic past (10 yrs ago).
What might it take to get in? Would my best bet be to work with and impress professors that are involved in the medical school here (research)? (assuming UC GPA and MCAT are good)
In the application, should I focus on how I would contribute to a diverse campus?
