Hey everyone, I generated a school list and wanted to get any feedback I could on it. I'm a Florida resident and luckily qualified for the fee assistance program so I can apply to all the Florida schools and then 12 more schools that I match up with. I also plan to apply to DO also. I outlined my stats below and the titles of my extracurricular activities to give an overview of my application.
My overall undergraduate GPA is a 3.149 with my sGPA trend being Freshman: 3.238 Sophomore: 2.611 Junior: 2.5 Senior: 3.417 with no extra activities. When I decided to go to medical school after a burn accident involving a close family member, I went to do a Biomedical Sciences Masters degree GPA: 3.889 only getting 1 B and all A's with only one class left till I finish.
My MCAT score is a 508 C/P:127 CARS: 126 B/B:127 P/S: 128
Extracurricular activities:
Clinical Technician - 2000 Hours (Clinical Employment & Meaningful Experience)
NASA Fellowship - 780 Hours + projected until matriculation (Research & Meaningful Experience)
Intercollegiate Football Athlete - 520 hours because athletic career cut short in first years of undergrad (Meaningful Experience)
Physician Shadowing - 14 hours + More this month after background check
The most prestigious and significant university award inductee (Award) - 0 hours
Biolabs Laboratory Assistant - 410 hours (Clinical Employment)
2022 Global Sustainability Space Challenge Finalist - 150 hours (Leadership)
Poster Presentations with 2 awards for 1 local and 1 state level conference - 10 hours
Publications (4 with more pending) - 0 hours
2x NASA USRA Internship - 800 hours

Undergraduate Research Assistant - 1000 hours

Background: I am from a medically underserved population/area according to the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration, a high school with a 22/100 college readiness index according to US News and World Reports, socioeconomically disadvantaged based on my parents, and first-generation. My seed I talk about in my personal statement for wanting to be a physician is the death of my father who sacrificed his life to save my little brother when I was 13 and my little brother suffered a burn accident a few years ago when I was a young man which caused me to start the master's degree and started in 2020 to do all my extracurricular activities to go to medical school.

My MCAT score according to MSAR is the exact median in overall score and section score for FSU and is within the range that FIU takes. All the out-of-state schools I am within range for my MCAT score and they are all out-of-state-friendly schools. Thank you to anyone who gives feedback I really appreciate it!
