Hello Everyone, I am a Canadian applicant who is serious about applying to DO schools.
ORM - South Asian Immigrant but visible minority wearing a turban.
I currently have a 513 MCAT which will expire after this cycle. I have a 3.95 cGPA. I applied to MD schools last cycle but did not receive any interviews, just 4 pre II holds.
Since the last application, I have started working on a systematic review, and working as a Kinesiologist (Healthcare practitioner) as I severely lacked clinical experience. I work with patients in rehab and design exercise plans for them and teach them about safe body mechanics.
My ECs are:
- 800+ Hours of research (Subject Trials, Lab volunteering, Systematic review) - Currently preparing for 2 publications, which will likely be published by the end of this year
- 120 hours of volunteering in the community (tutoring immigrant students)
- 400+ Hours of leadership at clubs in university, started my own club where I lead my team to work on exercises with seniors
- Personal hobbies like basketball in rec leagues, cycling etc.
- 1000 hours of clinic experience (working as a registered kinesiologist)
