TX Resident, ORM, just finished undergrad.
cGPA/sGPA: 3.38/3.59
MCAT: 523

EC:
  • Clinical job working with DO: ~2000 hours
  • Clinical community service: ~1000 hours
  • Research: ~500 hours (during undergrad)
  • Non-clinical community service: ~1500 (I started a non-profit serving URM)

  • Shadowing: ~200 hours with MD/DO's
I obtained a non-science major and minored in Spanish. I created a non-profit for URM in my community and volunteer at Spanish-speaking clinics. I know my GPA is rough, but WAMC? Should I take a gap year and do a DIY-Post Bacc or maybe an SMP? During this time I am working as a scribe/MA for a DO in my area and will continue to gain more volunteer/work hours. Open to any and all suggestions!
