Statement of Action

It’s crazy to believe that I am already halfway through my time here at OSU. It’s been going by really fast. By this time next year, I will be applying for medical schools! I feel like I am on track for getting all the required courses and research that I need for med school applications. I am going to continue my research at Nationwide Children’s over the next couple years. I’m done with taking all of the core sciences and only have general education classes and my major classes left. My GPA is lower than I would like it to be, but I expected it to drop because of the courses that I took this year. I’m hoping it’ll go up from now on because of my Gen Eds and major courses.

The other thing I need to work on is my volunteering hours. I have some clinical hours at James Cancer, but I’ll need a lot more before next year. I also need a lot of non-clinical hours. I am planning on joining the Red Cross and helping out with Blood Drives. This will get me a lot of non-clinical hours. I also get non-clinical hours through my organization Fresh Start, but I’ll need more. For clinical hours, I am hoping to join some doctors at NCH to go abroad for doctors without borders trip. I feel like it will give me lot more experience working with patients, and I will also get clinical hours.
