What else do I need to get admission into a good Pre-Med program

A 4.4 GPA pretty much has to be weighted. However, different high schools weight so differently that it is difficult to know what this means.

However, I think that the main thing that you need to do is to have a realistic goal in terms of which premed programs to apply to. There are a LOT of very good universities in the US, and a LOT of them have very good premed programs. Some of the top ranked (eg, MIT, Chicago) are also very academically very challenging and difficult schools to get a high GPA. GPA and MCAT scores are key to getting into a good medical school. Of course MIT and to a large extent Chicago (and Ivy’s, and a few others) are also very difficult to get into, and perhaps worse very difficult to predict whether you will get in.

Given that your local in-state university probably has a very good premed program, I think that you are in very good shape for getting in a very strong premed program. Which one is rather hard to predict at this point.
