Ok so I am in my first year of my bachelors degree and I am working on reinvention and bringing my gpa up. So aside from gpa and mcat.
Here is a little bit of background:
White male 22 years old. My interest for medicine peaked when I was 5 years old and I had neuro surgery to correct a Chiari malformation. I am the first in my family to go to college. I have helped my mom raise my younger siblings since I was a child.
I have been working as a veterinary technician for the past year in an animal E.R. I am currently shadowing a P.A. and a pediatric surgeon. I am a chair man for a walk for Chiari and Syringomielia. I also have 5 consecutive years of volunteering for the genesis house (an organization for abused women) probably around 200 hours. My aunt who is a DVM said that for her vet school resume she put that she was a skydiver and that was a talking point. Should I put on my application that I was a tattoo artist? I know my EC are weak and I have a long way to go on my application. I am just looking for some tips and advice for it. All opinions appreciated!
