I'm a long time lurker on this website but never posted anything. I'm applying the upcoming cycle to med school and I'm starting to get worried about my app.
MCAT: 36 (14ps 11vr 11bs)
GPA: 3.75 (maybe 3.8 when I apply)
Science GPA:3.6 (hoping to raise it to 3.7 by the time I apply)
Majoring in EE at a top 10 school.
IL resident
Thinking of applying to all the top private schools + all the schools in IL, so about 25 schools total. Is that a reasonable set of schools? Is it irrational for me to reach for the stars if I haven't done anything really impressive? I feel like I've done a lot of things well but nothing that will make anyone's jaw drop.
