Rising senior here,
I have the money, so I'd like to give myself the greatest chance of getting into an MD school by applying to as many as I can - within reason, of course. Which schools should I cut off due to me having virtually no chance due to unofficial residency, mission, or stats requirements, etc?
I understand most of my list is composed of reach schools, with a few super-reaches as well. I'm confident I'll at least get into a couple DO schools.
Stats: 3.78cGPA/3.81sGPA at a top10 ugrad, 29 MCAT (9BS, 11VR, 9BS):mad:
State: one that does not have any public schools:mad:
Demographics: 1st-generation, White/Hispanic (Spanish - so not URM, but I speak a "Good" on the AMCAS scale)
Extracurriculars: IMHO, I have pretty good/extensive experience in research, clinical, volunteering, and leadership. Research is probably the strongest part of my EC's, with my weakest as helping underserved populations (for which I still have at least a little experience, and my clinical volunteering is still strong). The point is that I think my EC's will only help me.
Letters: Probably all good, but not exceptionally amazing. I have a DO letter as well.
