Hi everyone, I just got my MCAT score back a few days ago and I’ve compiled a list of schools that I’m hoping to apply to. I know that my score and my hours are a bit on the low side, so any advice is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
  • State of Residence: CA
  • Year in School: graduated in 2017 and did post-bacc
  • Undergraduate Major: Psychology
  • cGPA: ~3.8
  • sGPA: ~3.9
  • Post-Bacc GPA: 4.0
  • MCAT Score: 510 (129/124/129/128)
  • Research Experience: ~900 hours, no pubs
  • Clinical Volunteering: ~140 hours (cut short because of COVID, not sure when I can start again)
  • Physician Shadowing: 65 hours
  • Non-Clinical Volunteering: ~350 hours (online counseling, food banks, etc.)
  • Employment History: 1000s of hours throughout college and post-bacc
  • Medical School List:
Albany
Central Michigan
Eastern Virginia
West Virginia
Geisinger
Temple
Medical College of Wisconsin
New York Medical College
Oakland University
Oregon University
Pennsylvania State
Vermont
Toledo
UC Davis
Minnesota
Wayne State
Wright State
 
Central Michigan, Minnesota, Wright State, Toledo, Geisinger, Oregon accept few non residents with your MCAT of 510 and no connection to the state so remove those.
I suggest adding these schools:
Quinnipiac
Seton Hall
Drexel
Jefferson
George Washington
Virginia Commonwealth
Wake Forest
NOVA MD
Florida Atlantic
Florida International
Central Florida
Tulane
TCU-UNT
Creighton
St. Louis
Loyola
Medical College Wisconsin
UC Irvine
California University
Kaiser
