Rising third year. I'll have around 1500 research hours by the time i apply, with another 1000 projected by the time i graduate. i was a goldwater institutional nominee last year, so i believe i have a decent chance of winning this year. issue is, my two current projects are clinical. they build off of murine studies in my lab. I am running the first two clinical studies my lab has ever done, but am afraid that mdphd programs won't like that almost all my independent experience is in clinical instead of basic science. i ultimately want to do translational research, so both wet and dry lab work. aiming for t5-t10 programs, i have 4.0 520+ and a LOT of EC experience outside of research. will me primarily having clinical research on my profile negatively affect me? I am thinking about asking to hop on one of the mouse studies currently going on in the lab to make up for it.

What to do to stay sharp the week before exam? Been scoring 520+ for FLs 3-5, taking FL6 this weekend. Almost done with AAMC material and not much to do the final week. Whats the game plan to maintain and perform on test day

Interested to see if we can plot a larger dataset, the last post regarding this was around two years ago. Drop your UWorld percentage and eventual MCAT score below, we can also collect data for section bank percentages.
