Well, I guess I can say that I'm new to the forums, even though I have been surfing around for a while, but this is my first actual post.
I am a Junior now and these are my predicted stats by the time I graduate:
Psychology Major, Biology Minor, Chemistry Minor
GPA: 3.2/3.3 (current 2.7)
MCAT: Mid 30's (33-36)
EC: All EC are current, and will build upon
-Have been and will keep on shadowing a Chief General Surgeon (partner is coincidentaly the Chief of Medicine), and going to shadow others in the new future in other fields. (Can get solid LOR's here)
-Working on becoming a physician scribe (suggestions about this?)
-Around 100 volunteer hours at hospital (gonna start volunteering again)
-Active in Baseball/Football leagues at local parks
Leadership:
-Chair member in my schools pre-med fraternity
I would also like opinions about becoming a scribe? The agency I am looking at looks promising but it has a catch...a commitment..either 1 year full time, or 2 years part time.
Also just general opinions on how I can meat up my application, working on my gpa. I am also trying to get into some research but that is extremely hard when they have a gpa requirement at my school, and hard to find and get into others, which also require gpa. I also have been in an upward trend the past 2 semesters, taking full loads. Thinking about maybe a post-bac degree?
Thank you. Will be looking forward to talking with you guys alot in the future
