Planning on applying next year, my current stats are...

Cumulative GPA 3.83 Science GPA 3.79
MCAT 33 (PS 11 VR 10 BS 12) --- First time taking it
Three Sport Athlete-- Cross Country, Indoor and Outdoor Track
Good EC's with a good amount of shadowing experience.
2 year of research and internship last summer
Maryland resident and have no problem with going far from home

Here's what I've put together so far.

Emory University, Atlanta
University of Virginia, Charlottesville
Duke University
University of Pittsburg
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor
University of Maryland, Baltimore
Thomas Jefferson, Philidelphia
University of Miami Leonard M Miller
UNC, Chapel Hill
Dartmouth University
Saint Louis School of Med
Tufts School of Med, Boston
Hoftsta North Shore
Virginia Commonwealth U, Richmond
Temple University, Philidelphia

Would this list be too top heavy, or does it seem to line up with my stats okay?? Also what other schools should I apply to? And which ones should I not have on this list?

Members don't see this ad.
 
You have a few reach schools which is fine. You could add a few more low and mid tier schools such as Drexel, New York Medical College, Einstein, Albany, GW, Georgetown, Loyola, Rosalind Franklin.
 
Thanks! The only reason I didn't have a lot of those school on in the first place was because of the ridiculous amount of applicants they get (especially the GW and Georgetown in DC). Factoring this in, should I apply to closer to maybe 18 or 20 schools as a safeguard?
