30 is obviously a lot of schools, hoping to get advice on how to trim it down. I know NYU, Sinai, Rochester are probably reaches, especially without good research experience but any of the others seem that way? Also I know the Jesuit schools tend to look better on clinical/volunteer work, any of that type I overlooked? Also I know my GPA/MCAT is near to sub average for most MD's, planning for 3-4 DO schools in addition, would it be wise to add some more DOs and cut out a few on this list?
Reapplicant from last year. Applied to 22 then receiving two interviews from Univ. of WA and NYMC. Primary sent in August, secondaries by October. So pretty late, have everything ready to submit in June this time around, hoping low yield of II's was primarily due to late app.
