- Student tutor for 2 yrs
- 2000+ hours of patient contact (worked as a hospital/therapy aide at an inpatient rehab hospital for 3+ years)
- 500+ hours of community based volunteering in a clinic that provides services to medically underrepresented population in my home city.
- Should have great LORs from 2 MDs, 2 PhDs, and one PT.
- Have various work experiences in clinical management & customer service

I know this is a rather brief description. Mostly I am worried about the MCAT being on the low end.
