Thoughts on my school list?

[moist]

Hey guys! I'm trying to finalize my school list. Right now I have about 25 schools but I'm trying to cut that down to about 20. Not a set number, but I'm just shooting for about 20-25 schools. Anything more than that and I'm worried I won't have the time.

I'm an IN resident with a sGPA and cGPA of 3.9. I took the MCAT in September and got a 35. I have typical EC's (research, volunteering), but nothing extraordinary. Let me know if you need any more info.

Here is my list. What are your suggestions?

• Albert Einstein
• Baylor
• Brown
• BU
• Case Western
• Columbia
• Drexel
• Emory
• Georgetown
• IU
• Jefferson
• Loyola
• Medical College of Wisconsin
• Northwestern
• NYU
• OSE
• Rochester
• SLU
• Temple
• Tufts
• UMiami
• Pitt
• UIC
• UVA
• Penn State

Thanks for the help!

I think the common wisdom around here is that people who are looking to cut down should first get rid of schools like Georgetown and Drexel that have a high volume of applicants.

Cut Brown, as they high prefer their own grads.

You can do better than Penn State and Drexel; try USC/Keck or Hofstra.

Dump Tufts for high cost of tuition.
