I applied for the 2014 cycle at several schools. I was denied from two, wait listed at one, and yet to year back from the fourth. I am trying to prepare myself for the worst, and start working on bettering my application for next year.
My stats:
Undergrad gpa: 3.47 (improved dramatically from freshman to senior year)
Prereq gpa: 3.1-3.3
GRE: 312
Hours: 3000+
Shadowing: 40hrs
I work full time and am only able to take classes online, but I do plan on taking one or two in Spring to improve my prereq gpa.
I know I will have to write a new personal statement, do I need to get different recommendation letters? Two of the three, (one was a MD, one healthcare supervisor, one professor), let me read them and they were wonderful.
What can I do to improve my application?

Also, I have about 100 hours of volunteer work so far.

If you are sure about your letters, then I suggest you work on your prereq GPA and plan to really impress them with a first class essay. I assume you have heard about our ebook on the topic, but in case you haven't:
