Hey SDNers, there are a few other old threads like this and I wanted to start a more recent one.
So what is your dream med school (or maybe top 3 if you don't have a specific one in mind) and more importantly why?

I have my list that I've already completed secondaries for the ones that have sent them to me but I feel like it would benefit for me to add two to three more OOS schools in my range, more towards safety schools because I feel like I'm lacking in that department. Any advice on which ones? I'm...
