Hello,
I am a non traditional student (my prior jobs were in the mortgage business and for short time periods each as they kept getting closed down) who decided this past summer on medical school. As such, my EC's at time of application will be:
Volunteer at nursing home 100 hrs about 3 years ago
volunteer at community blood bank 80 hours over 6 month span
volunteer at animal rescue shelter about 55 hours
shadowed 3 doctors for total of 75 hours
member of several clubs, but most are rather inactive--Psi Chi Honor Society, Golden Key Honor Society, etc. ect. Should I include these memberships on applications?
I know I am lacking leadership. Should I wait another year to apply? I am planning to apply to KCUMB DO school.
MCAT 32R
cGPA 3.5
sGPA 3.65
I will have all my prereq's done this winter and plan to get my app in June 2011 for 2012 matriculation
