Hello! I applied this cycle and I know there's some time left but being realistic I want to improve my app. I am an ORM graduated from a T15 currently doing an SMP program where I got a 4.0 the first semester and hoping to do the same this semester.
MCAT: 509 (planning on retaking)
GPA: 3.49 undergrad (upward trend)
Clinical Volunteering 100+ hours
Nonclinical Volunteering 100 + hours
Research ~500 hours
My clinical hours is low and with Covid this year and my living situation (elderly relatives) decided not to find any opportunities this year. I plan on doing something clinical next gap year because I also would want a LOR from a doctor to apply to DO schools. Was wondering if I should reapply this May or honestly even wait another year so I can be a bit prepared. I would like to matriculate into medical school as soon as possible but would rather wait another year than be a third time applicant.
