1. cGPA: 3.57 sGPA: 3.77 (sGPA is also the GPA during my postbac)
2. MCAT: 522
3. State of residence: KY
4. ORM
5. Undergraduate: State School, Postbac was at Columbia
6. Clinical experience: worked 1 year as EMT
7. Research experience and productivity: ~400 hrs as a clinical research intern
8. Shadowing experience: ~80 hours
9. Non-clinical volunteering: ~1500 hrs at youth sports complex

I am a non-trad worked in accounting for about 2 years before enrolling in the postbac.

I obviously will be applying to state schools but I’m not really sure where else to apply because of my lower end gpa and higher end mcat and because I did a postbac.

Thanks for the help!

What is the nature of your non-clinical volunteering? Did it involve activities like soup kitchen work or anything related to working with underserved populations?

Did you grow up in rural Kentucky? What were your responsibilities at the youth sports complex? Do you have any other community service activities where you are comforting individuals in dire need or distress and where you show a comfort level being uncomfortable?

If you did a postbac, did you connect with your prehealth advisor there? What advice have they given you regarding a school list?
