URM, 3.9 GPA, 500 MCAT, waitlisted at 2 schools

[ThunderDog]

Does anyone seen or had experience with someone with my similar stats?

3.9 GPA
500 MCAT
64.4 LizzyM
URM

I interviewed at Houston and Lubbock back in October-November of 2016. I believe my interviews went exceptionally well as we connected pretty easily, but that could just be from my perspective. I sent a letter of intent to Lubbock earlier this year and I have been placed onto their unranked alternate pool. I still have the whole month of June to hear back, but I thought it would be nice to receive some feedback.

I have thought about waiting to re-apply until Summer 2018 to really dedicate time to improving my MCAT score since that is probably killing my chances of going to medical school. I completed my application in September of 2016, so I am thinking if I am complete earlier then I will have a better chance of being invited to more schools.

Also, I have thought of buffing up my application by learning some new languages like Spanish or ASL, or becoming a MRI technician.

What do y'all think? Thank you in advance for your time and input!
