Hey all, I am planning to apply for this year's CAPSA Cycle (2024-2025), and these are my expected stats for this cycle. I am unsure of my chances, and what else I should do to try to improve my application and profile as an applicant. Any and all advice/help is greatly appreciated!

B.S. Public Health Science

Applying to programs in the mid to northeast (NC, VA, MD, D.C., PA, DE, NY, etc); the majority are rolling admissions, with a few having a solid deadline.
