I would really appreciate if you guys could comment on my school list and chances of getting into a medical school this cycle.
Maryland resident; Asian female; went to state's flagship college for undergrad; graduated this year; majored in biochemistry
GPA: 3.82, BCPM GPA: 3.77, MCAT: 33 (PS-9, VR-10, BS-14) <-- the 9 in PS worries me, but won't retake (at least for this cycle)...I really don't want to delay applying any later.
I submitted my primary beginning of July and got verified. Applied to state's MD school and added more schools after getting back MCAT scores a couple of days ago. So now my school list stands at:
1.University of Maryland SOM (completed secondary)
2.George Washington (received secondary)
3.Georgetown--
4.Hopkins--applying just because it is my dream school...although chances are slim
5.Rosalind Franklin (received secondary)
6.Albany
7.Einstein
8.New York Medical College
9.University of Toledo
10.Drexel
11.Jefferson
12.Temple (received secondary)
13.Cooper Rowan (public school in NJ-so I am OOS) (received secondary)
14.Virginia Tech-Carillion (screening for secondary)
15.Brown
ECs are good: both clinical/non-clinical experiences, research, paid employment, teaching experiences, some honors/awards (Phi beta kappa) etc. Multilingual and an interesting international life history/background, but won't be considered URM or underprivileged. LORs should be good I think.
What are my chances? Should I consider adding other schools, or is this list fine?
