Thanks for your help! Currently waiting for my AMCAS to be verified as I narrow down my list of schools.
- cGPA 3.77; sGPA 3.96 (Undergrad GPA was ~3.7, degree was in Accounting, from a small liberal arts school, and 2 year post-bacc at Harvard Extension School was ~3.95 making up most of my science classes)
- MCAT 39 (PS/VR/BS 14/11/14)
- Clinical volunteering: ~160 hours as a hospital patient escort volunteer for past 18 months, ongoing
- Physician shadowing: 5 hours Hospitalist, 8 hours ED, 8 hours Neo-natology
- Research: 40 hours volunteering for a clinical research project interviewing patients at a hospital, hopefully will be starting up with this again in the fall
- Nonclinical volunteering: 80 hours volunteering with a pediatric cancer foundation, including being a member and VP of their junior auxiliary board, ongoing
- Employment: 5 years working for an international financial services firm in a licensed, client facing role overseeing projects
Here's my list so far:
Medical College Wisconsin
Vanderbilt
Ohio State
Minnesota
Mayo
Michigan State**
Michigan
Johns Hopkins
Tufts**
Boston U
Harvard
Indiana
Rosalind Franklin**
University of Illinois
Rush
Loyola
Northwestern
Pritzker
Colorado
Stanford
Case Western
**Considering eliminating these. Any others that I should eliminate?
Also thinking of adding...
Yale
Georgetown
Dartmouth
Baylor
Wash U
Arizona
Would love to attend any of the above schools. Honestly just hoping for some good financial aid, if that's possible. Wondering, do I have too many reach schools? Not enough mid/low tiers? Thanks!
