Asian male, just got a 35 on the MCAT, which I'm not 100% thrilled with. I worked in banking for 4 years after my History degree (with lots of engineering and science courses mixed in), then started a post-bacc in which I have a 4.0. I'm an ohio resident and have some good ECs from college (Varsity sport, VP of a fraternity), attended a small elitist school for UG, have some research experience during my post-bacc but no paper yet, and have done a lot of volunteering in non-med areas, some in medical areas, and shadowed a few physicians.
I'm looking for a quick read on my chances at these schools, and any comments on possible additions/removals from this list as well:
Case
Ohio State
Cincy
Wright state
NEOMED
Toledo
Tulane
Temple (legacy)
Jefferson (lived in philly for a while)
Drexel (same)
GWU
Georgetown
Keck (USC)
UCLA (I have some family ties to cali, but not a CA resident)
UCSD
UC Irvine
UC Davis
Also, if my chances are piss-poor for cali schools, am I better off not applying there for the sake of my other applications? I feel like if ohio schools see that I'm applying a lot in cali, it makes me seem like I'm desperate to get out of ohio/the midwest, which isn't the case at all...
