Hi, I am a junior in college and I would like to see where people I should apply and point out weaknesses in my application. Here is a quick summary of my career goals: I would not like to be a full on physician scientist. I want to apply research so that I could improve patient care. As of right now, I will not be applying to MD/PHD or MSTP programs. Here is my application so far:
Schools I am considering to apply to. Will probably change:
Johns Hopkins
Harvard
UChicago
Duke
Vanderbilt
UFlorida
Wash U
UCSF
Columbia
UMiami

- I have founded a club which works toward equitable education in my college city. I have donated uniforms, made math afterschool tutoring programs, and have lead multiple service projects at these schools. I am a director of the elementary student tutoring service in school. I have a good leadership in the math club at my school, which hosts competitions and provides math help for high schoolers that want to excel at math competitions. I have TA'd a few neuro classes. I will graduate this year, so I will use my senior year to do a service project i have been planning back in at an Asian country. It will be focused on increasing hygiene and teaching homeless people about nutrition at a homeless shelter.
- Undergrad research awards.
