Hello everyone,
It has been a few years since I last posted here. I overcame my rough start and will be graduating with ~3.7 Cum and ~3.8 science. I will be taking the MCAT in May, but my practice tests have been ~510, so I am assuming (hoping really) that my real score will be around that. I am a non-trad applicant and a former combat infantryman with service overseas. My worry with my application is that I have very little in the way of clinical, volunteer, or research experience. I am in the process of getting a scribe job, and hopefully working full time from now until May will give me some solid clinical experience. I am a humanities major, so almost all of my science classes have been the prereqs, so I am also wondering if it would be wise to take some post-bac science courses? Any other suggestions to improve my app? I am targeting my state school (very strong in-state preference), or neighboring ones. Any advice or comments would be appreciated! Thank you all.
