Hi all, I'm looking to get some advice/WAMC.
I live in BC, and recently graduated with a BSc.
cGPA is 3.90 on the OMSAS scale
MCAT is 515 (129, 127, 131, 128)
My big problem is that I have almost no ECs. The only thing I have is 4 years of babysitting, and some miscellaneous short term volunteer things that I did 5 years ago. I've played basketball and was in band throughout high school, not sure if that counts for anything. As for work, I've been a research assistant at two biotech companies (for coop) and a tutor at a math center for kids.
My question is, should I apply to multiple schools this cycle? Should I just apply to UBC for this cycle? Other schools to consider (not planning on taking the CASPer unless it opens up a lot more options)? Should I take a gap year and work on ECs? Is it too late? Tips for improving ECs?
As you can see, I'm in a hole right now lol so thanks in advance for your suggestions.
