Hello All,
Forgive me if this post is redundant in any case, as I am new to SDN.
So in my subject line are my general stat #s.
I’m an African American Georgia resident, who worked two jobs in undergrad + ran a business I developed to help support my family. Thousands of philanthropic/leadership/shadowing/volunteer hours.
Philanthropic: $1000 scholarship for a woman in Africa to attend school, led/pioneered multiple charity work/fundraisers, etc.
Leadership: multiple roles including mentorship, etc
Shadowing: 800+ in internal medicine/pediatrics/health admin roles
Volunteer: homeless shelters
Personal statement: Solid. Genuinely attests to my story and difficulty in undergrad due to familial circumstances.
My biggest worry, however, is my undergraduate GPA. Balanced it by acing my Biomedical and Health Sciences masters program + an above average MCAT (I believe) for AA’s. Would love feedback on applicants who have been accepted with similar numbers.
Also really need help with a school list!!! Thank you.
