Would love some advice on my school list. Realize my lack of research could hold me back at top schools. Have also heard about yield protection and wondering if that could be a factor at certain schools given my GPA/MCAT. Wanted some thoughts on the types of schools I should apply to tier wise. Ideally, interested in staying in the Midwest, but will obviously apply all over.
I’ve seen @Goro @Faha @chilly_md @Mr.Smile12 tagged for advice. Thank you so much in advance for your help and expertise, I really appreciate it!
