Hello everyone,
I'm currently 22 years old and I'm interested in Med School. I go to the University of Central Florida
Freshman GPA (2004): 3.85
Sophomore Year (2005) : Bio 2 - D Chem 1 - F Calculus NC and then again a withdrawal
In 2004, I was also working as a real estate agent.
Now I went to work for a Fortune 200 company as a sales rep in 2005 during the same time I got a D, an F, and a Withdrawal in my second attempt in Calculus. I made 110,000 dollars in 18 months of working there and was quite successful. I couldn't handle school and working 60 hours a week during that year and half.
I left to return to school in 2007. And I have had a 3.875 GPA in the last three semesters. I'm only one semester away from application time so I plan on taking my MCAT this July so I can apply for Med School for 2010!
So as of right now:
My Major: Micro/Molecular Biology
GPA with my 2005 semester (which includes a D and an F) is: sGPA 3.481 and my cGPA is 3.489 (when I apply)
GPA without my 2005 semester is: sGPA: 3.81 and cGPA: 3.85
mCAT: Have not taken it yet!
EC:
- For the last 8 months, I am Fundraising chairperson for Habitat for Humanity at my school
- 150 hours volunteering in Emergency Room and ICU
- Worked for Fortune 200 company for 18 months and made six figures in 18 months and still left the position to become a doctor
Research:
- 4 months of research doing organic synthesis and molecular biology research on riboswitches
Shadowing:
-about 4 hours a week for the last 3 months in a GI tract center
Letters of Recommendation:
- One from a Government Official, discussing my knowledge of economics and geopolitical affairs
- One from my Anatomy professor, he is an MD/PhD
- One from my friends who are anestheiologists (both MDs)
- One from my VP of Sales and Marketing at my former company
- One from my Calculus Professor (PhD) claiming that even though I dropped calculus twice I got an A my third time and I was his best student
Personal Statement: Excellent
My state of residency is Florida.
Notes:
What are my chances for Medical Schools (MD programs only) and PharmD schools?
Anyone?
