Brief Profile:
I graduated in 2012 from a public Florida university with a 3.3 sGPA, 3.25 cGPA and 31 MCAT (11BS, 9PS, 11VR) with a strong upward trend. Since graduating I volunteer each week at a free clinic and have over 400 hours so far. I am also an emergency department scribe. I applied only to osteopathic school's this cycle due to my positive experiences shadowing, volunteering and working with DO physicians. This was my first cycle applying and I was fortunate enough to have a choice of schools to attend. I wanted to make this profile so future applicants can learn from my experiences.
