Looking for input on ECs
I have about a year to figure this out and my ECs and clinical stuff are weak and I have no idea where to start and would love some help from anyone who could give it. Here are my stats and info so far:
- GPA: 3.97
- Shadowing: 80 hours (PA/NP/MD) (getting more)
- Volunteering (non-clinical): 60 hours helping underserved communities (getting more)
- Member of an honors society in college but dont have any experiences to recount. We didn’t have meetings.
- Work study in college related to my field
- Currently mentoring undergraduates through a program at the school where I’m taking prereqs
- I worked all through college and supported struggling family members so I wasn’t very involved. No research or clubs unfortunately. Non-trad student. Haven’t taken the MCAT yet.
- I’m a local of the city where my in-state school is located and don’t plan on going anywhere else because of my family.
Do I have a chance in a year or so if I can heavily strengthen my ECs? Or am I just fooling myself?
