Hey guys, 1st time poster. I need your help with my school list. Heres my basic info... I know it's vague but I'm trying to keep anonymity:
NY resident, ORM, Male
cGPA: ~3.8-3.85, sGPA: ~3.65-3.7
MCAT: 33-34
Major: Social sciences, graduated 2012
This is what I'm most worried about: Got a C in OChem one semester and have an alcohol-related IA from freshman year
ECs:
Varied shadowing
Volunteering - 2-3 years worth
Other leadership/campus involvement - 2-3 years worth
Research - 2 years in undergrad, have worked in clinical research for 1 year and will continue through app cycle
Potential school list - I want to apply to 15 max so need to cut ~5:
Albany
Case Western
Columbia
Dartmouth
Drexel
Einstein
Georgetown
Hofstra
Loyola
Mount Sinai
NYMC
NYU
Penn State
SUNY Downstate
SUNY Stonybrook
SUNY Buffalo
Temple
U of Miami
Tufts
U of R
Which ones should I take out or swap because they get so many apps or because theyre out of my league? If Im really unlikely to get an interview Im wondering if its worth the time and money. Thanks!
