My current high school GPA is 3.7+(somewhere between 3.7 -4.0). I will be graduating in May.
Also, I have let up on my extracurricular activities specifically flute playing (maybe a bad idea?, since I was good, good at the flute).
Please keep the advice coming; it is great and helpful (and interesting)!!!
Oh yes, will someone please give me a link to see just what the MCAT scores look like per students' chosen major????
Although old, the link in my post on the first page has MCAT scores by category of major. However, scores on a graduate admissions test don't really tell you how well a major prepares one for the test. There is self-selection bias. For example, criminal justice/criminology majors have the lowest LSAT scores. That doesn't automatically mean that CJ programs are poor at developing the analytical skills one needs for the LSAT. It could be that people with lower verbal skills just choose to major in CJ. To be honest, after teaching CJ students at a traditional university, they didn't come across as being too bright. Community colleges aren't known for having a lot of geniuses, but my CJ classmates didn't come across as being as intelligent as my psychology and business classmates.
I found some more recent data. Biology majors' PS and VR scores are pretty bad.
