Chance Me / Match Me!

Hey guys! Thanks for taking the time to look at my post. I am thankful for all of you who can take the time to respond to this question. Do I have the stats to get into direct med?

Here they are:
Unweighted GPA: 3.895
Weighted GPA: 4.3

ACT Composite: 36
ACT English: 36
ACT Math: 36
ACT Reading: 36
ACT Science: 34

PSAT: 230
SAT total: 2400
I earned 800 on critical reading, math, and writing.

SAT II:
Chemistry: 750
Math Level 2: 730
Biology: 740

I have taken and self studied a grand total of 13 AP’s. In 12 of these, I earned a 5, while I earned a 4 on AP Lang.
I received a 5 in AP Chem, AP Calc AB, APUSH, AP Macro, AP Micro, AP Psych, AP Calc BC, AP Comp Sci, AP Stats, AP Bio, AP Physics: Mechanics, and AP French.

I’ve been in varsity tennis for one year
I started a social media consultancy
I started TSA at my school
I qualified for nationals for Econ Challenge, HOSA, and DECA
I’m also an award winner at Chem, Bio, and Physics Olympiads
As for volunteering, I have spent time in hospitals, I have gone to India for volunteer work, and I have a grand total of around 600 volunteer hours.

I am an officer for French Club, HOSA, DECA, TSA, Interact Club, Model UN, and I’m a member of my city’s youth council and part of NHS at my school. In addition, I was the captain of the JV tennis team for one season.

I have earned many awards as a middle schooler, but I doubt they will help for the application process.

I plan on shadowing a couple of physicians over the summer, but my main main MAIN WORRY is my GPA. Is a 3.89 really enough for a BA/MD or BS/MD program??? Also, I received a C- in AP Calc AB in the first semester of sophomore year because my teacher didn’t understand I was sick and thought I was skipping and gave me a 0 on a 100 point test even though I begged her… not an excuse but really what had happened.

I plan on applying next year to the following direct med programs:
Wayne Med Start
Boston University
Drexel
Howard
Penn State
University of Miami

I have my in state university as a back up just in case I don’t make it to any of these…
So, do you think I have the stats to make it in? Do I even have a chance???

Direct med programs are always reaches for just about anybody. But, for regular pre-med, they are all safeties, except BU and UMiami thata re low matches.

Most schools with direct med programs will consider you for regular admission if you’re denied from the direct med.
