Apply after another year

I would wait a year before applying. Take that extra time to save up enough money for an application cycle, continue getting clincial experience (shadowing and volunteering), and get some non-clinical volunteering in an area you are interested in. Think about what you want to do in your gap year as well. Research and scribing are the standard, but you have plenty of options!

Lack of volunteering is going to kill your application, apply next year

No, you should apply on the first day of the cycle. You can't do that here because you have to wait a few months to get your MCAT score. The lack of volunteering is another huge flaw.
