Biggest question on the side: I'm taking my MCAT later on august (8/21) and I still have an unverified application for probably many weeks since my transcript is still in mail not even in their hands yet to begin processing for verification of AMCAS application. So my question is: Am I able to send an application to LSU anyway? When should I send them: ASAP, After MCAT test day, After transcript processing, when?
Applying to:
LSU New Orleans
LSU Shreveport
Tulane University
(the rest I would love for you to fill in for me, but I won't bother applying to any private med school that receives a flood of over 5000apps and only accepts an average 33 MCAT Score because I consider it a waste of money and my FLs I'm scoring 32average so shooting to only break the 29-30 mark on the real one)
ECs:
120 hours of hospital volunteering with the ER nursing unit
50 hours of Shadowing a Radiologist
35 hours of Volunteer Teaching in Community Health Clinic for Elderly in Computer Literacy (Formulating my own syllabus and volunteering to teach a total of 10 lesson, one each week, to about 3 students between the ages of 50-70yrs how to type and how to make use out of computers they really never used before)
20 hour Environmental Service (Building bee hives to donate to honey farmers in louisiana and to help save the dwindling bee population)
Zero Research, No LORs written out yet (planning to do that at the end of my first semester senior year), and I want to also emphasize that I still have not taken the MCAT, still writing a perfect Personal Statement, and AMCAS still have not processed transcript let alone received it) leading to a likely late application (although it's fine for me to send it ASAP right?)
What are my chances?
