I am currently a senior biopsychology major with a chemistry minor at a private liberal arts college. (I still have to take classes next fall so I am planning on taking the MCAT in the winter/spring of next year. So, all of my hours will add up, and I will have time to study for the MCAT.
I transferred from a state university after 2 years (3.8 GPA, honors program). and now have a 3.2 GPA. overall I have a 3.5 cum and 3.3 science. I had a terrible my first semester at my new college (Fall of junior year), but my grades have since been a lot better.
I was a college athlete and a member of our pre-health society on campus.
Off campus I am starting to volunteer at hospice, I already have around 20 hours at a nursing home just doing activities with the residents. I also just got interviewed to be a big sister for big brother/big sister. I should hear back in a week or two regarding that. I am a direct support professional and have been working there for 4 months and plan to do that until med school (20-25 hours a week). If you don't know what it is, I basically help people with mental disabilities (kind of like a CNA).
I have no research, but my school requires it for my major so I will be doing my own project for one semester. It really doesn't interest me, but if you think it will help I will be able to talk to a professor about it.
Sorry for making this so wordy, I was just trying to explain everything. If you see any week spots on my application could you please point them out? I'm trying to be as competitive as possible and will do whatever it takes. Thank you!
