Need some honest advice on my chances. The plan is to take the MCAT mid June 2019, and start applying in the 2019 cycle. My fear is that my ECs will drag me down, regardless of my GPA/MCAT. I'm going into my 3rd year at a state university.
Currently I'm sitting at:
cGPA: 3.85
sGPA: 3.82
All extracurriculars:
70 hours as a TA for two general chemistry courses.
770 Hours as a CPhT with a retail pharmacy
50 Hours of shadowing (Ortho, FM, Peds, ENT)
About 10 hours of volunteering at a local food bank, I'd expect around 50-60 hours by the time June rolls by.
10 hours as a mentor at a local Boys and Girls club, likely to have roughly 30 hours by June.
I was elected treasurer of my university's Premed club for this year.
I will have around 150 clinical volunteering hours as an ER volunteer with a local hospital by June 2019.
Side note, I am ORM, Eastern European parents but I was born in the states
I know not having an MCAT makes it hard to answer this, however my biggest concern is my ECs and whether those are even close to good.
