I just finished my freshman year and I really want to get into medical school or my University's Junior Medical Honors Program (UF). I will apply to this program Spring Sophomore year. My science GPA dropped from a 4.0 to a 3.95 because I bombed the ecology section of my biology test (who needs ecology in medicine anyways). I haven't taken the MCAT yet as I hope to get into the Junior Medical Honors Program. I've taken both gen chems (A's in both) Bio 2 (A- 🙁 ), Calc II (A), Bio and Chem Labs (Both A's), and molecular genetics (A 4000 level genetics course, which I'm getting an A in.). Next semester I plan to take
Orgo 1
Microbiology
Physiology (4000 level course)
Writing for medical sciences
Possibly Spanish conversation of research for credit. Taking 17-20 credit hours.
Currently, I have served over 250 community service hours, been recognized for my community service with the Presidential Service Award, volunteer at my hospital, and my county's department of health, and hold a leadership position on the volunteer club I run. I am also about to be published for the research I am doing in my lab and will participate in an REU/SPUR this summer. I also am hoping to do another lab next semester in an area I'm more interested in (I'm keeping my lab now also because I have such a good relationship with my PI). I also plan to volunteer at a rural medical clinic taking vitals, and possibly shadow an anesthesiologist.
Any thoughts or comments are highly appreciated 🙂
