Hi all! I recently updated my school list and am looking for some feedback.
I'm open to any feedback, especially if any schools on my list don't fit the "vibe" of my stats/demographics/activities or are too low-yield. Lmk what you guys think!
- cGPA/sGPA : 3.99/3.97
- MCAT score: 518
- State of residence or country of citizenship (if non-US): PA
- Ethnicity and/or race: Asian
- Undergraduate institution or category: Public state school
- Clinical experience (volunteer and non-volunteer): 350 hours of EMT, 120 hours hospital volunteering
- Research experience and productivity: 550 hours at home institution, 400 hours with summer internship at UPenn, expecting another 400 hours with summer internship at Harvard med this summer. 2 publications (5th author on both), 2 poster presentations.
- Shadowing experience and specialties represented: 100 hours in various specialties (neurosurgery, oncology, ENT, ortho, family care, peds, cardiology)
- Non-clinical volunteering: 250 hours after-school academy program for disadvantaged youth in South Philly-- this program also did community events (food distribution, diaper banks, vaccine clinics etc.)
- Other extracurricular activities (including athletics, military service, gap year activities, leadership, teaching, etc): Resident Assistant, Orgo TA, Chinese language tutor, president of American Physician Scientist Association
- Anything else not listed you think might be important: Most of my app is pretty research heavy, looking to apply to research schools, but not MD/PhD. I would like to pursue a career in clinical academic medicine though.
