Hey all!
I am a junior applying to medical schools this summer. I was just hoping for some input on my school list and what my chances are. My stats are:
cGPA: 3.48 [very low i know... :( this is what is really scaring me atm] upward trend for the most part
MCAT: 31
EC's:
*2 Exec board positions
*Volunteering at hospital for the past year and a half
*Research position at the medical school. Publication in the works [past year over two hundred hours]
School List:
1. Morehouse School of Medicine 3.45/27 [GA]
2. Loyola Stritch 3.6/30
3. Rush 3.64/31
4. UIC 3.5/30
5. Rosalind Franklin 3.45/29
6. SIU 3.55/29
7. Louisville 3.6/29 [KY]
8. Wayne State 3.6/29 [MI] ??????
9. Oakland University William Beaumont Medical School 3.65/31 [MI]
10. New York Medical College 3.6/31 [NY]
11. Buffalo Medical School 3.6/29 [NY]
12. Hofstra University North ShoreLIJ SOM [NY]
13. Northeastern Ohio 3.6/28 [OH]
14. Drexel 3.58/30 [PA]
15. University of South Carolina Medical School 3.6/28 [SC]
16. Meharry Medical College 3.4/25 [TN]
17. Eastern Virginia Medical School of Medicine 3.44/31 [VA]
18. Virginia Commonwealth School of Medicine 3.6/29 [VA]
19. Marshall Edwards School of Medicine 3.5/28
This isn't a final list but this is probably what I will be leaning towards as the time goes on. I know that for me applying as early as possible and making sure my application is near perfect will be my two keys but I'm really worried and any sort of advice or guidance will be greatly appreciated!!
