Hello guys,
I am in a bit of a predicament. I just took the July 24th MCAT and I will get my score back in late August then submit my AMCAS RIGHT AWAY. Do you think my application would be too late to get an interview?
Another thing that I will be looking into within this month is what schools I should apply to (Upper tier, mid tier, low tier MD) Here are my stats:
CA resident (Want to apply to mostly CA schools, Duke, Emory, UNC, and Central Michigan- Received emails encouraging me to apply this cycle so I will)
*My undergrad school is in San Diego*
URM- African American
cGPA: 3.62 sGPA: 3.4ish (not completely sure off my calculations) MCAT 1st try: 23 MCAT 2nd try: (Pending)
ECs:
300+ clinical hours (Scripps Mercy Hospital ER and Trauma, Geriatric hospital, etc.)
Medical Brigades (Ghana) - also was director of supplies and medication for the Honduras trip following year
Research Assistant- 2+ years
Scripps Mercy Hospital trauma intern (Patient-Doctor relationships)
SMDEP (Duke University School of Medicine)
USSF Certified Referee (Competitive Soccer)- 9+ years
Treasurer (AMSA)
Football player - Frosh and Soph years (injury prevented me from continuing)
ETC.
Just came on here to see what schools I have to the potential to apply to and get an interview even though I am applying LATE AUGUST (smh). Turned in the transcript and everything, once I get my score I'm pressing submit (if I am satisfied with the score).
Thanks for your help.
