So my stats are in the title. I have almost two years of non-stop research, with one presentation at a conference, but no pubs. About 100 shadowing hours, and a lot of volunteer work at a nursing home. I have spent two years on a mission for my church in Brazil, so I am fluent in Portuguese. I am a member of my school's marching band, and am a NY resident. Thanks everyone!!

oh, here is my school list!


NYMC
NYU
SUNY Downstate
SUNY Upstate
Stony Brook
Hofstra
Albany
Buffalo
Rochester
George Washington
Uniformed Services University
Morehouse
Rosalind Franklin
Wayne State
Wright State
Loma Linda
Creighton
MCW

I know 31 isn't top tier quality, but your list is incredibly bottom heavy. You honestly have no business wasting your money on Morehouse unless you want to attend a HBC for fun. You can get into better schools. No need to apply to Morehouse.

Yeah I agree, also just in general you need some reaches. I'd throw in NYU, Einstein, and see what happens at minimum -- it looks like your focusing on the NYC area, thus the suggestion.

Well, I am not SDA, but my undergrad is Brigham Young University, which is run by my church. I figured that may help me to seem like I fit in more with their specific mission...
