Hello SDN,
I am a male latino nurse that is going back to medical school. I would appreciate if I received some advice on my resume.
GPAs 3.9 GPAc 3.8
Full-time Registered Nurse for 3 years
Volunteered in a underprivileged free clinic for two years.
Tutored basic sciences for a year. (love to teach)
I was planning to be a family nurse practitioner but I decided,through much thought, that medicine was the right decision for me.
I am applying this cycle and I am going to take the MCAT on June 21.
My question is, are my lack of actual leadership positions or research experiences going to hindered my chances to get into an allophatic school? Should I delay and apply next cycle? If I get a 30+(or even a 27-29) on the MCAT, what are my chances this cycle?
Also, if you comment about my nursing being a negative. I've heard it a hundred times already. I love my job but I also I believe I would provide a greater contribution to my patients by becoming a physician. Anyways, any input would be helpful and thanks!
