<p>"I am of middle eastern decent, and the reason I am interested in becoming a doctor is because I was inspired to help people when my uncle went overseas and helped poor and underprivileged families have their babies safely delivered on his own time (hes an obstetrician). "</p>
<p>FYI, not that good of an idea writing an essay about that unless you went <em>WITH</em> him and saw that firsthand. It’s not about why your UNCLE wants to be a doctor, it’s about why YOU want to be a doctor. </p>
<p>I’m going to be totally frank and honest with you - chances are extremely low. Originally you might have had a shot if it wasn’t for your 3.3 sophomore year since currently you have an upward trend. I’d expect almost all admits (with a couple of exceptions, I will get to that in a sec) to have 750+ SAT IIs and 2250+ SAT Is coupled with a killer AP/IB schedule. I think a previous poster is right and the lack of ECs wont hurt you AS MUCH as you come from a smaller school, but there are plenty of ways to find ECs on your own. </p>
<p>There are pretty much three ways you can get admitted (and this is ALL of your options)
a) Do something hush-hush and under the table; such as and/or not limited to giving significant amounts of money to the school under the guise of a donation
b) Get recruited for a sport (kind of unlikely as the recruiting process starts earlier; someone from my school was recruited at the end of their junior year for volleyball and she has a full ride to Stanford now)
c) Write totally, totally KILLER essays.</p>
<p>UCLA, UCD, and UCSD are probably better matches if you want to stay in-state.</p>
