The next year I will apply to medical school and I want to know if I need to improve my ECs.
My GPA is 3.5 and my first MCAT is 503. I will retake it in the next months though.
As for my ECs I have 1 year of research assistant full time work experience in a laboratory in a hospital (my current job) with one publication just published and hopefully others coming. In my job I also have to call the patients by phone and ask if they are feeling better and register some information about that or their symptoms. Sometimes, I also go with my boss around the hospital for the same reasons. I do not have any clinical volunteering experience but when I was in college I was part of a club that aimed at giving food to homeless people. I also volunteered at a few runs and similar events. I do not have any shadow experience.
Is this good enough for MD school? What should I improve to be competitive for mid-top tier schools?
