California Resident
Graduated BA in Psych in 2009

I do have a red flag besides the MCAT score. During my first semester in grad school, I did not pass an MBA class (corporate finance). I did retake it the following year. I was put on AP, but was taken off of it. Other than that my grades were fine in grad school (though my school's grading system was pass/fail)

- Interned at the World Health Organization at the department of health systems financing in summer 2010
- Was a student organization consultant for two years advising student organizations at my college
- Started an honor society
- Started an international volunteering group where I took 10 students down with me to northeast brazil to volunteer at an orphanage and also do some fieldwork on the healthcare system there. One of the most eye opening experiences of my life!
- Was the social director at my grad schools student association
