Also, i just learned that school can see all the other schools you've applied to.

Does this put an applicant at a disadvantage if med schools feel like he/she is getting desperate to get into medical school?

We cannot see where you applied.

You could eliminate at least 10 schools without reducing your chance of acceptance.

It's just my MCAT really that's lacking. How's my school list? I definitely need to cut down so which schools should I take out? Which schools have I overlooked!

Albany medical college
Albert Einstein college of med
Boston university- alot of apps, 35 MCAT median
Creighton university
UCLA- they get 10,000+ apps and don't have CA preference (see website).
Drexel
Eastern Virginia
George Washington
Georgetown
Hofstra
Howard Uni- Are you black? If so then keep and add a few of the bolded schools back on.
Jefferson Med college
USC- Heavy emphasis on MCAT score being 34+
Loma Linda
Loyola University
Medical College of Wisconsin
New York Medical College
New York University
Northwestern
Oakland University William Beaumont
Quinnipiac Uni
Rosalind Franklin Uni
Rush medical College
Saint Louis Uni
Temple University
University of Vermont
Tufts- alot of apps, 35 MCAT median.

Missouri has a strong in state bias and Howard mostly accepts URMs/those who want to work in underserved communities.

Given my research heavy experience (3 pubs, oral presentation at international conference, poster) I want to add some schools that look favorably upon research

Given your 31 MCAT score:

12. University of Miami
14. Wake Forest[/quote]
