Hello everyone! I'm not sure if I should enroll in a postbacc, SMP, or apply abroad (Caribbean/Ireland/Australia) for medical programs. What do you recommend?
- 3.1 cGPA and 2.6 sGPA as calculated by AMCAS or AACOMA due to terrible grades during dual enrollment and Academic probation freshman year
- No MCAT
- Florida
- URM: AA male
- I received my associates at a community college through dual enrollment, and I'm now a senior at the University of Miami
- Non-Clinical: Currently 60 hours working as a receptionist on campus
- Clinical:
- 500 hours of volunteering in Peru, Nicaragua, etc. through a church
- 50 hours at a local church clinic
- 800 paid hours working as a receptionist for my parents in their medical office (I'm not sure if this can also count towards shadowing, but I did observe other physicians)
- No research
- Shadowing experience and specialties represented: 8 hours ENT, more than 80 in family practice
- Non-clinical volunteering: I'm in a jazz combo that plays at nursing homes and churches, I'm planning on applying for Americorps next year
- Other extracurricular activities: Philanthropy chair for my fraternity
- Relevant honors or awards: Deans list Fall 2020
