Hi everybody!
So let's just get down to the nitty gritty, currently a junior with 1.5 years left of undergrad majoring in economics, and am currently a NJ resident going to college in NY:
Science GPA: 3.40
cGPA: 3.496
Have yet to take the MCAT (but hopefully shooting for around mid 30s?)
ECs: Study Abroad Resident Assistant (Fall Semester '11)
Member of Hall Council for Residence Hal (sophomore year)l - won hardest working member as well as being nominated for outstanding member from overall hall council program (the hall council for all residence halls),
Member of a couple of other clubs
Volunteering only around 50 or so, but will go up to hopefully around ~200 when i apply
No research or shadowing as of thus far, but I will be planning on shadowing over this summer and hopefully over the next coming year
Working at a work-study job for about a year and a half now as well, with this continuing on for the next 1.5 years (so all together when i apply it'll be 3 years)
Also a couple of quick questions:
1. Would a business statistics course (labeled just statistics on transcript with course number showing up as an econ course) count toward the sGPA? It was pretty much a regular stat course... with some business related stuff thrown in on the side
2. Would a honors principles of bio (so bio I and II) course (labeled as honors principles of bio) be looked at any differently then just a regular bio I and II course?
Thank you! :].
