2. MCAT score(s) and breakdown: 519. 131/127/131/130

How long have you been a Florida resident, and what area of Florida did you grow up?

I'm what way are you volunteering with terminally ill children for 100 hours? You still should have at least another 50 hours of service orientation community service. TA does not count.

I also need a stronger description of mission fit.
