MCAT: 513
GPA: cGPA 3.65, sGPA 3.55
Of note:
I’m a transfer student; CA resident. Straight A’s in organic chem (1&2) and biology (1&2) at my CC. Also got B’s in Physics (1&2). One A and one B in gen chem series. BUT i got 3 C’s (precalc, calc 1&2). A in stats at CC. Transferred to UC Davis, straight A’s so far (physiology, biochem, cell biology, immunology, applied stats, genetics, and probably will continue to get straight A’s, i think UC Davis is a cakewalk).
Extra-curricular: While I was in community college and got my C’s, I was working full-time.
So since I started college I was a full-time Emergency Department Technician (EMT certified, phlebotomy certified, ACLS, PALS, BLS certified; all together ~2,500 hours as ER Tech, extremely hands-on).
I also was CPR instructor for 6 of those months on top of ER tech (~300 hrs).
Volunteered at hospital for 610 hours
Part of Big Brother Big Sisters (i was a “Big” for a 9 year old from a disadvantaged family) for 80 hours.
315 hours of research, submitted for publication
80 hours UCI Summer Pre-Medical Program, Mentor to high school students
I’ve done about 20 hours of volunteering with homeless people (food serving)
Shadowing: 60 hours abroad, 40 hours in US
And currently im working at UC Davis Medical Center 24 hours a week in the Burn ICU (also very hands-on, so still racking up hours)
At my CC I also mentored an international student for a year, and I was the secretary of our pre-health club for a year
