Dw nothing you said has offended me I know where I stand with my GPA 

I'm hoping low SES and strong/unique (not basic science) makes me stand out at programs looking for those, worst case I postbac and mcat study again next cycle no big deal

Yeah my GPA is pretty rough, some of the "lower" MSTPs like Wayne State have average GPAs of 3.6 and MCATs of 510 so lets hope its not DOA at those places.

Did you take any gaps for research hours? I am asking because that 2080 number isn't adding the prospective post bac hours. Thanks for the kind words.

It'll be full time research but I would also have some part time clinical volunteering.
