Would there be any other other MD schools possible? Would Rush or Wayne be out of the question? And what could I do to strength app in terms of EC's

@Goro Faha gave a good list, any other rec's?

 

[Goro]

Can you give us your year by year gpas?

Can you give us your year by year gpas?

2.8*/3.0/3.3/3.8 . I had an extremely low GPA in the first two years, and beginning spring semester junior year, I picked it back up @3.6+ for the last 3 sems.

 

[manifestation_master_777]

also took all upper level / grad level science courses from 2nd sem junior year onwards. @Goro

I wanted to comment, your experience hours are also lower than desired. 15 hours hospital volunteer, 35 hours shadowing. EMS is 400 hours (respectable but we also have seen more from other applicants). 80 hours BLS.

No community service is listed. Could you tell us more here?

Rush is out of the question. You seem to have no nonclinical volunteering. Rush expects hundreds if not thousands of nonclinical volunteering from their applicants.in fact, all of your listed hours are on the lower side.

Rush is looking for applicants with many hundreds or thousands of hours of non clinical volunteering.
