Chem (biomolec sci emphasis) major, Spanish minor
3.988 GPA with 107 credits
Taking MCAT in May.
Estimated hours of EC's by the time I apply:
-Nonclinical
120 hours volunteering in a homeless shelter
Executive board of student honors association for 2 years
Teaching violin lessons (free of charge) to family friends' children
-Clinical
90 hours combined volunteering in free clinic and ER
50 hours physician shadowing, including internal med (shadowed my dad actually, is that okay?), radiologist (DO), peds cardiology, peds pulmonologist, peds GI, anesthesiology (DO)
-Work
Business office assistant in retina specialist office since 2015
Pharmacy tech
Student assistant in COLS dean's office
Tutor for calc I, calc II, gen chem I and II, and spanish
I am applying MD, but I've began researching DO schools after shadowing a DO. Do you guys think I'd be successful if applying DO? I assume my MCAT is going to be very average, as I suck at standardized tests. My target score is 509. What should I keep in mind?
Thanks!!
