My situation:
Major: Foreign Language and Culture
Minor: CHemistry
BCPM: 3.8
GPA:3.79
MCAT 29Q 10, 10, 9
Stuff I did before I applied this cycle:
Researched in Zoology department for 3 years, and some amount of publications.
Volunteered in a hospital intermediate care unit for 2 years.
founder/coordinator of a charity event at a convention, raised a record amount of money for a children's hospital.
Shadowing of a gynecologist oncologist for two summers
Went to China to shadow a urology hospital for a month. Lived in hospital . Observed many surgeries and procedures. Taught English in the afternoon.
Researched in humanities, publication. Received two awards for the project later became senior thesis which was received for highest honors.
Other awards include that stuff you expect from GPA munching.
Stuff I've done since:
Hospice Patient volunteering: 10 hours a week.
Shadowed an ER doctor since feb. 4 hours a week.
Begin (hopefully) shadowing neurosurgery in another hospital in may.
Push out another publication for zoology, hopefully submitted in June.
Study for MCAT.
Ok, i know i am in that border of where there is a chance that i can fall and the chances of improvement are relatively small (big improvements).
So, my question is; should i retake it?
