I was hoping for some advice about re-applying to med school. I felt like a had a competitive application, but so far I have no acceptances and have been put on the waiting list at two schools (USF and FSU). Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Stats:
Age: 21
Sex: Male
Race: White
Degree: B.S. in Biology from USF
MCAT: 30 O
Phy: 9
Bio: 10
Verb: 11
GPA: 3.7
BCMP: 3.7
Clinical Experience: Worked in patient transport at hospital for three years. Volunteered in free medical clinic for the uninsured last summer.
Research Experience: Undergraduate research under two professors at USF for one semester each. Was employed as lab assistant in Univ. of Florida Plant Genetics lab for one summer.
Volunteer Experience: Have volunteered with Faith and Light, a handicap outreach program for over seven years and went on pilgrimage to Washington, DC for F&L national conference in 2006.
Life Experience: Paid for college on my own. Participated in National Student Exchange during my third year of college at Humboldt State University in northern California. Worked part time throughout college. Started college as an Environmental Science major. Haven't gotten a "B" since second year of college. Ran marathon in 2005.
I'm contemplating joing the Americorps or becoming an EMT, but I'm not sure how these will improve my application. I thought that my interviews went well and was pretty surprised when I wasn't accepted. Thanks for any advice.
