Hi everyone, looking to apply next cycle and have no clue what's realistic for me. The list above is what admit generated for me. I will be working until I apply so hours should continue rising. Here are my current stats:

4.0 GPA 523 MCAT, NY resident, ORM

attend a small T50 research university

clinical: >1000 hours across EMS and inpatient work

research: ~1000 hours clinical research across two labs, multiple national posters and a first-author pub in the works rn

non-clinical volunteering: 400 hours suicide hotline

misc: TAing

my areas of concern -

clinical volunteering: about 25 hospice volunteering

shadowing: 30 hours

Lmk your thoughts, what I should focus on improving, etc. Thank u!!

I didn't study at all aside from Anki for multiple days recently due to feeling super burnt out. Did FL4 today and felt super duper crappy during it. I am sooo elated guys 😭 LETS GOO!!

To my dismay I noticed a yellow leaf on my lovely happy golden! I am a new plant parent so am very wary of changes to my babies. A lot of what I am seeing on this sub about yellowing mentions root rot as the culprit for this sort of thing. I had just watered her last night. She puts out new leaves every few days and has given me no issues until now!

Does this seem more like old growth just dying off or should I check my roots? Any advice appreciated, ty!
