WAMC for a reinvented student?

[EnzymaticFuture]

Hello everyone!!

Just looking for some advice on generating a school list for this upcoming cycle. I will be applying to MD and DO schools. For reference, I’m a black male from Nevada.

I followed @Goro advice on reinventing myself after a subpar undergrad (3.0 gpa).

My stats during undergrad: ~ 3.0 cgpa, ~ 2.75 sGPA

Post bacc stats: 3.85 gpa, 40 credits of upper division sciences and a few psych classes. 512 MCAT

I have around 3400 clinical hours working at a hospital (Patient transporter/Ekg tech), 300 non clinical hours, 70 shadowing hours (including a DO LOR) and was a UTA for a couple semesters in histology & human anatomy.

Also is there anything i should work on in order to improve my app? I’ve considered taking more classes during the application cycle just so i can send grade updates but maybe that’s not needed? Thank you for the help!
