Shadowed a DO

Really want MSUCOM obviously but after that my top choices are KCU and CCOM, so I’m asking about my chances at these 3 really.
Applying to other schools (NSUKPCOM, ATSUSOMA, IllinoisCOM, DUQCOM, RVU CO, NYITCOM, Touro Harlem, Rowan, PCOM, AZCOM, DMUCOM) chance me here as well but I really want one of my top 3.

Thank you!

Avoid those schools that have yet to graduate a class.

Delete SOMA

Add KCOM, MUCOM, LECOM, VCOM, ACOM, KYCOM, CUSOM, WCU

Why delete SOMA? Unwilling to live in a rural area tbh hence most of your suggestions not being on the list.

I appreciate the input a lot. Might think twice about completing the secondary they sent me today. It seems you’re very active in the forum, how do you think my chances are at MSU as an IS student/KCU? KCU is my #2 for sure due to their rotations in Michigan. I understand even your, or anyone else’s “chance” for me is meaningless in the end but just based on what you’ve seen before.

Where are your service orientation activities? Is it all affiliated with mosque membership? Show me how you have stretched beyond your comfort zone and off-campus. I think as an in-state applicant, it always stands as your best chance, but I want to make sure you have the service orientation competency.

The non-profit I founded donates school supplies to students in need across Michigan, we have reached a few hundred students so far in underserved communities in Michigan. I am an intern at a free clinic in Detroit (volunteer), and the non-school affiliated organization I am on the board of delivers groceries to families in need across Detroit. A lot of the leadership positions double as service and or volunteering, should have clarified. Thanks!
