After applying this cycle and still waiting to hear back from anyone, I have pretty much resigned to the fact that I will need to apply again next cycle. I applied late and don't have a strong enough application to be competitive this late in the cycle.
With my stats, what will be the most beneficial thing I can do over the next 6 months?
oGPA 3.44, sGPA 3.21 and BCP 3.26
I know my GPA isn't great, but I have gotten about a 3.9 over the last two years and hoping to continue that trend my senior year. It is only reasonably possible for me to my sGPA to a 3.29, my BCP 3.37, and my oGPA to a 3.53. If I can raise my GPAs as I anticipate that I can, will these still be a limiting factor on my acceptance? Should I consider some sort of post bacc/masters?
DAT- 19 BIO, 22 GC, 29 OC, 20 PA, 23 RC, 19 QR; 22AA/21TS
I studied pretty hard for the DAT overall, but really like 10 hours a week for 4 weeks and 6-8 hours a day for 3 weeks, but with better study materials, I know I could at least score higher on BIO. I also feel that my performance on the PAT could be improved upon, as I consistently scored 22 and above on CDP. Is it worth taking the risk of another DAT? I am happy with the rest of my scores (except QR, but who cares about QR haha).
In terms of ECs:
I have shadowed for just over 90 hours and volunteering is just over 100 hours in the past two years. For volunteering, what is the time frame that is considered applicable?
Gap Year:
Basically, I want to know what is the weakest portion of my application and what can I do to improve my application the most?
