I know my GPA/MCATS are pretty low, but i will try realli hard next year (junior) to bring my gpa and mcat score

Is there anything else i can do to strengthen my application?

I would say for most med schools across the US your scores are not low, but for CA they may be. The most important thing would be to increase your MCAT score and keep up your GPA.!
