Hello SDN,
I'm applying this year and it seems like most people on here are very helpful.
I am a California Resident; Asian Male.
Getting a B.S. Microbiology
cGPA 3.90, sGPA 3.76
(Unfortunately I couldn't balance college courses well in high school, so AMCAS put that into my science GPA as well. I really hope med schools ignore that and see that it has been 3.84, 3.88, and 3.9 for the following undergraduate years)
MCAT 510: Physical 128 CARS 125 Biological 131 Psych 126
Shadowing: 36 hours
Founder and President of my school's Premedical Club
Peer Tutoring: ~400 hours
Hospital Volunteer: ~500 hours
Phlebotomy: ~600 hours
Research on MRSA: ~1120 hours No publication, but one is under-revision and should be published rather soon.
There are a couple more, but I think those are really minor. This is the crux of my extra-curricular activities.
Dream school: UCLA
Applied to all UCs including UCSF
Albany Medical College
Albert Einstein
Baylor
CA Northstate
Temple
NYMC
Penn State
Quinnipiac
SUNY Upstate
TJU
DO Programs:

Please let me know what you guys think, critiques and all.
Thank you guys so much!
