cGPA: 3.86, sGPA: 3.91
MCAT: 515
EC's: I'd say they are relatively strong, diverse, and not cookie-cutter. I have my bases covered here. I don't want to share details because of anonymity.
I'm applying as a FL resident so my strategy is to apply to the florida schools (minus FAU b/c CAPSER and FSU b/c MCAT over 90th percentile) and and then any schools I would potentially take over my in-state options if granted an acceptance.
My list is 36 schools right now, mainly because of the high amount of reaches I have. Is this list too top heavy or is it okay to apply this top heavy if I have my "safeties" covered with my in-state options? What are some other schools I can add to be safe? I could really use some advice, thanks!
