MD & DO Should I minor and stay another year?...

Apologies in advanced if there's a similar thread but couldn't find any that fit my scenario...

Little background: Didn't know what I was doing with my life until my sophomore year at a CC. Got my sh*t together. Decided to major in Kinesiology instead of IT. Took the necessary Bios, physics, sociology, etc. Transfered to a state university and decided to go on the premed track. Ended up getting put on academic probation my first semester as a transfer (more vigorous classes, bigger lectures, etc. Didn't know how to study) Got my sh*t together once again. Got a 3.7 the next semester.

My scenario: To complete my Kinesiology degree I only need four Upper Level electives and a Core and then the med school prereqs: Orgo II, Chem II. I was thinking of picking up a minor in neuroscience (read the classes and their description and got really giddy...) to compliment the Major and "show" med schools that I'm passionate about learning and challenging myself, especially since i'm coming originally coming from a CC. If I were to pick up the minor, I would probably graduate in spring of '15 as appose to spring '14. I don't mind the extra year..

Don't have research, yet.
Have reasonably strong EC's..
Will end up taking the new MCAT :(

Any thoughts, suggestions, "you're skrewed's"?, If I wasnt clear, i'll be glad to specify any details.. I'm all ears...
Thanks in advanced.
