Hah, thanks for that. I'm new to the process of picking schools and sort of just picked a bunch at random.

What happened to the rest of your MI schools?

Western is private so I'm not sure if I'm at any advantage applying there. I forgot to add central back though.

Though we have no data yet, I'm willing to bet they have a largely IS class.

Gotcha. With the addition of Western and Central, how does my list look? Am I overreaching?

With the addition of these two, I see 10 schools where you have a fair to good chance at an interview. That's usually enough.

Gotcha. I was wondering what you thought my interview chances were at these schools: Michigan, Northwestern, Keck, Cincinnati, Wisconsin.

Also, my previous MCAT was a 28, but I got an 8 on verbal. Not sure what effect this will have on my app.

U MI: fair to good (depending on how they interpret multiple MCAT's)
NW, USC: low
Cin: OOS matriculation: 69/4018: = low/fair
WI: OOS 43/4214, but median MCAT is 32: = fair

The 7VR will hurt. It's < 10th %ile at most medical schools.

You are aware the USUHS requires a military commitment after graduation?
