I needed to continue to work full-time, so my only option for pre-med classes was in the evenings at a Community College. My science GPA is 3.5. I have not yet taken the MCAT but plan on doing so in July. I had no time for volunteering/shadowing so far (working 40 hours and going to school 4 nights a week most of the time) but plan on volunteering during this summer and possibly the fall also. Also, AUC asks for a letter from a pre-med advisor, and there isn't one at my school...however my science professors speak very highly of me and will submit letters of recommendation.

Could someone please offer any advice?
Take the MCAT, apply to US schools first. If those should fail, if you score decently on the MCATs and aren't a complete lunatic with a long rap sheet, I think you stand a good chance.
