When I started college 9 years ago I had no idea what I wanted to do. I changed my major multiple times. I attended 6 different undergraduate institutions earning almost 200 credit hours. I have 17 W's and 1 D. I finally graduated with a degree in Liberal Studies. I found my way into EMS, became a paramedic, and worked in Fire and EMS for 4 years. Left that to pursue an opportunity with a police department where I currently work as a patrol officer and also as the Special Operations (SWAT team) Medic.
I enjoy the heck out of emergency medicine and want to go further. I decided to go back to school full time (while working full time) and started taking pre-req's for med school. I went for 1.5 years full time and made all A's.
Currently I have a 3.53 overall GPA and a 3.68 science GPA. Haven't taken the MCAT yet. I have about a year of volunteering with Red Cross and have done a little shadowing.
Where do I stand? What kind of MCAT will I need to be competitive? Thanks.
