I really need a more comprehensive list of schools but I'm not sure what range I should be looking in based on my stats and ECs. I know I want to apply to all my state schools but beyond that I'm not too sure. WARS tells me I should only apply to DO schools (E tier). I really hope that's not the case but if it is I just need someone to give it to me straight.
Stats
cGPA: 3.60; sGPA: 3.37
MCAT: 510 (C/P 125, CARS 129, B/B 129, P/S 127)
Residence
State: CA Resident
US Citizen: Yes
Ethnicity
White
Undergraduate
Low tier UC, Biomolecular Engineering Major
Clinical Experience
~100 hours working in free clinic, assisting as a translator for Spanish speakers, taking BP, weight, and height, lead volunteer (trained all new recruits), ran the registration desk. Clinic operations suspended by COVID-19.
Research Experience
~ 2000 hours (2 years), neuroscience research in mice, preforming surgeries and histology. Mid-author position on manuscript in progress. Publication by application time in a mid-tier journal.
Shadowing
None yet. Delayed extremely by COVID-19 lockdowns. Hopefully in March, shadowing emergency medicine physician (~40 hours).
Non-clinical volunteering
~ 100 hours, various online opportunities, mainly tutoring free for K-12
Other ECs
Lead Application Developer at a small startup (2 years), I've been working on their flagship product for a while now. I transitioned to leading a small team working on a completely new project this past year (~300 hours).
Other Info
Working hard on maintaining my upward trend (3.35 cGPA my freshman year) especially in the sciences. Hopefully increasing both my sGPA and cGPA by another half point by application time.
Schools I'm Interested In
UC Davis
UC Irvine
UC Los Angeles
UC Riverside
UC San Diego
UC San Fransisco
