hello, long time Lurker 1st time poster.
Before I start I know the reality of my grades. My current cGPA is 3.1 with a sGPA of 2.6. MCAT of 518.
I did terrible during my undergraduate years. No upward trend and I'm not going to make excuses for myself. I was being lazy. I did not care about school and did not study nearly enough. I kicked my butt for the MCAT and think I did pretty well for myself. I was relying on the grade replacement as I retook Orgo 1&2 with As, and took Biochem & anatomy with As as well. I need advice as I can not afford to take any more classes and was wondering if these most recent grades and my MCAT give me a chance.
I have 1800 hours of Clinical experience
100 hours clinical volunteering
2 published papers (in psychology though no hard science research experience)
400 hours of online crisis counseling
300 hours of general volunteering (various religious organizations including ones that help integrate those with special needs into religious spaces)
100 hours of shadowing
Edit: I believe I am an ORM as I am Arab American which is considered White
