Hiya! Last time I posted here, I was told that I needed to have my MCAT done for a solid idea of where to apply? Posting this again now that I've done so!
cGPA: 3.68 (strong upward trend, I had a really bad semester in my sophomore year after COVID relented. My last two years have a GPA of 3.92)
sGPA: 3.55 (Ditto, My last two years have a GPA of 3.86)
MCAT: 515 (127/128/129/131)
State: California
Ethnicity: Asian American
Undergrad: California State University, Northridge. Public Health.
Clinical Experience: 500 hours, 220 of those are regular volunteer at a hospital that mainly caters to the surrounding underprivileged community and 280 were an internship at Kaiser.
Research Experience: None.
Shadowing: 52 hours in the OR, 14 hours gastroenterology
Nonclinical: 300+ hours done, i am expecting another 200-300 over the next six months. It's mainly me volunteering to tutor immigrant youth.
Extra: I took biochem and both physics online during summer semesters.
My current school list is:
UC Riverside (My goal school as I have family there, the GPA and MCAT averages are ones I’m higher than, and my family as a whole just moved there)
UCLA (To be entirely honest, a shot in the dark)
I intend to apply to all of the California state schools + Kaiser, but when it comes to OOS, I'm a bit lost and would appreciate any help that can be provided!
