<p>well guys its another of those questions: what are my chances of getting into a med program? I am specifically looking at U of miami med and USF/UCF med, but Miami is my top choice. Put it this way, if i get an acceptance letter into their med all of my other apps will b worthless, they are my 1st choice. </p>
<p>Stats:
GPA: 3.6 UW, school doesnt weight
SAT I: 2000/2400, no clu why i did so bad but retaking in June
SAT II's: Math 2C: 800, Bio: 660, US: 680, retaking bio and doign chem in october
AP's: junior year: AP Bio and AP USH, senior: AP Calc, AP Econ (Macro and Micro), AP Lang and AP Chemistry, estimating high 4's or 5's on my APs this year. </p>
<p>EC's:
Photo editor of yearbook for 2 years (in charge of all pix in yearbook)
sports asst. editor of newspaper this year and photo editor for paper next year, and writer for 10th grade
math club for 5th year next year (high leadership position there)
Drama for two years (spring musical, etc)
150+ hours of hospital volunteering and 100+ hours of Red Cross</p>
<p>Going to India this summer for mission work/also going to be the main point for my essays. Teacher Recs will also be very good guaranteed. </p>
<p>Yes, it seems like a long shot, but jwing how my chances are at these schools and if you could reccomend any others. Thanks guys!</p>
<p>UM is really tough and competitive to get into. If you can get that GPA up to a 3.7.... you'd be a good candidate for the UCF/USF med.</p>
<p>Your ex. curr. are pretty solid; I'd suggest that you work on your SAT and GPA for the most part.</p>
<p>I'm not sure you're a very strong applicant, but you never know with these med programs. Try to raise your GPA/SAT scores, and make sure that you display your passion for medicine in your application. And be careful of the essay topic: It's been done many, many times before, so your essay might come out cliched or corny. Figure out a way to make it work.</p>
<p>Bring up those stats, i got into the miami medical program and will be going there this fall. For your help, here are my stats</p>

<p>I can tell you right now, the interview was the most important aspect</p>
