MD Thoughts? (Cdn student)

[Ad Parnassum]

Hello! Canadian student here:

Academic stats:

• Currently in final year of undergrad with expected cGPA 3.69-3.70 (U-shaped trend over 4 years)
  • BCPM GPA: ~3.65
• MCAT: 15BS/14PS/11VR (total = 40)

Research/volunteering:

• Research: 14 months full-time over a few summers (>2000h); one first-author paper under review
• Healthcare-relevant volunteering: ~150h total; no shadowing
• Other volunteering: ~100h total

I was wondering if I stand a chance of getting an MD interview invite from the following schools (in alphabetical order):

• Boston U
• Mt Sinai
• SLU
• Vanderbilt
• WUSTL
• (... do you recommend any Canadian-friendly schools?)

Feeling a bit borderline due to my non-research ECs... all constructive feedback and suggestions are greatly appreciated - thank you!!!

Excellent stats, wow that MCAT. Add more schools like Wayne state, RFU, Albert Einstein, and others that take internationals.

Thanks for the tip, SFU!

So I might have a chance even without an abundance of leadership-category experience? (I'm much more balanced in person than on paper)
