Hello all!
I am applying with a 30Q MCAT (11V, 10P, 9B) and a 3.7 gpa (3.65ish science gpa). I am a Minnesota resident.
I have decent ECs (I think), but no research, which I am worried will hurt me.

I would love some help with my school list....
U of M (TC and Duluth)
Creighton
Drexel
Boston U
Jefferson
Mayo (a reach, i know)
Medical college of WI
Penn state
Rosalind Franklin
Rush
St. Louis
U of Vermont
Tulane
U of CO
U of Illinois
U of Iowa
U of Nebraska
U of Wisconsin (another reach)
Loyola (maybe)

What do you think?

What do you think?
Do you have the extensive service to the poor that Loyola and Creighton will be looking for? Did you excel in some other area of endeavor to compensate for the lack of research at Mayo and BU particularly, but that most schools, in general, seem to like? Do you have ties to Iowa that they will ask about? Do you have the 400+ hours of clinical experience they prefer in Colorado?

Stat-wise, I'm sure you're fine for most of them, but they just get the school's attention. ECs that mesh with a school's mission is what gets you the interview. Without that information, it's hard to answer your question.
 
me and you are the same person OP. Check my thread and see what im applying to.
