Hi!
Just wanted to know what SDN thinks about my chances:
3.61 overall gpa, 3.5 science gpa
definitely an upward trend
GPA of freshmen year: 3.6 cGPA
GPA of just sophomore year: 2.9 cGPA (sGPA around 2.5)
GPA of just junior year: 4.0 cGPA/4.0 sGPA (retook the class I got a D- in ^)
GPA of just senior year: 3.9 cGPA/3.88 sGPA
Cumulative: 3.61 at the end/ 3.5 sGPA
MCAT 517
Go to a good school (small, but competitive to get into, really hard overall)
ORM, female, first-get
NC resident (interested in MD schools mostly, but will also apply to DO schools)
Main extracurriculars:
-Psych research lab assistant for 2 semesters, 500 hours over the summer, no publication but a poster, different projects but same lab
-Leadership: Tour guide for 2 years, online paid tutor/mentor for high schoolers for all 4 years through an organization - do these count?
-Service: Clinical is volunteering at a hospice two years (150 hours), hospital 2 semesters (80 hours)
non-clinical is 4 years of 3 hours a week of tutoring at a college access center for disadvantaged kids
Planning on doing something service related during gap year (not sure if these hours get to count or if I can still write about it in my application? also does anyone have specific suggestions on what I should do during a gap year to maybe round out my extracurriculars more?)
Shadowing - family physician 40 hours & 40 hours other specialties
Mostly interested in these schools:
UNC Chapel Hill
Wake Forest
ECU
Temple
Drexel
UVM
Albany Medical College
Sidney Kimmel
New York Medical College
Kaiser (?) - good/bad idea?
PCOM
I would love to know what people think my chances are at these schools but other than that, I'd also love to know what schools I should add to my list!!
