Hey guys, I'm back again.

So I graduated G-town magna cum laude with a 3.802 cum and a 3.85 sci gpas. I had a decent amount of activities in college including hospital volunteering, TAing, and shadowing. I was part of a research scholars program and did 3 summers and 2 school years of research in a well known lab. I took a late june 21st mcat and got 11 bs 12 vr and 14 ps 37r. But here's the catch- there was a fire drill in the middle of my second section, VR, which we had to evacuate for and I lost around 5 min off my timer, which screwed me up for VR and the rest of the test (first section was PS which I did well in, then VR which i did less well in, then BS). The aamcas acknowledged that I had an interruption that could have negatively impacted my scores and sent me a letter to send to colleges saying so.. I am also white and live in illinois. Here's my list; Loyola Chicago, Northwestern, University of Illinois, Rush, University of Chicago, Georgetown, California Davis, U of Wisconsin, Indiana U, Cali san diego, central Michigan, Boston U and Ohio State. Chances please!

Despite the ruckus, you still scored at the top of your practice range on the MCAT. Well done.

Chances of success for White Applicants applying with stats like your were 90% over the past three years. With a strong Leadership EC, your odds would be better at the more-selective research-oriented schools. If you have strong humanistic service, you'll do better at schools with that orientation. If you have an unusual Artistic Endeavor or Hobby, all schools will take more notice of you, as you'll be memorable.
