Hey y'all, I was wondering if I could get some adviceif my school list was too top heavy or if it was okay for my stats?

I have a 518 MCAT, 3.99 GPA (3.99 sGPA as well) and am a Missouri Resident going to a huge flagship state school in another state. I have 5 research publications, lots of volunteering experience, and have pretty decent other EC's but would like to somewhat preserve anonymity. Any help or advice would be appreciated!!

My list is:

Washington Univ - St. Louis (WASHU)
Pritzker (Univ Chicago)
Vanderbilt
Perelman (Univ Penn)
Northwestern
Harvard
Yale
Case Western Reserve
Univ Pittsburg
Univ Cincinnati
Baylor
Emory
Rochester
Dartmouth
Univ Florida
Mayo (both AZ and MN)
UTennesse Health Sciences
Mizzou
Univ Alabama at Birmingham
Univ Missouri - Kansas City

Thank you all :) :)

You should receive interviews from your list. You could remove U Alabama, U Tennessee and U Florida unless you went to an undergraduate school in one of those states. You could add Einstein, Mount Sinai and NYU.

Agree with Faha.

Scratch Baylor. Only 0.5% of applicants get into there.
Also consider:
USF Morsani
JHU
Jefferson
Hofstra
Emory
Stanford
UCSF
Columbia
BU
Cornell
U Miami
