Possible School List

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
What is your sGPA and cGPA including your undergraduate and post bacc courses? Which URM group do you belong to ? If Hispanic are you fluent in Spanish ? Do you have any physician shadowing hours or clinical volunteering or employment with patient contact ?
 
I’m African-American. I think even with my post bacc GPA my overall GPA is around a 2.6. Only fluent in English. I’m patients for roughly 6 months. I volunteered at a hospital and have over a 100 hours. I have 25 shadowing hours with a physician that wrote me a letter of recommendation.

You could receive interviews at some MD schools. If you are going to apply this year you should apply this month and submit all your secondaries by August. I suggest these schools:
Mercer
Medical College Georgia
Howard
Meharry
Morehouse
UCLA Drew
George Washington
Drexel
Temple
New York Medical College
Seton Hall
Loyola
Rosalind Franklin
Medical College Wisconsin
Oakland Beaumont
Wayne State
You should also apply broadly to DO schools and should have more interviews at the DO schools. I suggest all these:
PCOM Georgia and South Georgia
ACOM
ARCOM
NYIT-Arkansas
UIWSOM
BCOM
LUCOM
WVSOM
UP-KYCOM
LECOM (all schools)
LMU-DCOM
WCU-COM
Sam Houston State (when they begin accepting applicants later this year)
It would be a good idea to take additional science courses at a local college to increase your sGPA as much as possible in case you need to reapply next year. Your only weakness is your low GPA. You have a good MCAT score and EC's.
