Quick stat: 3.5 GPA, 3.44 sGPA. DAT: 19 TS, 22 PAT, 20 RC, 21 QR, and 19 AA.

Here are the schools I'm thinking of applying, mostly around East Coast.
VCU
Maryland
North Carolina
South Carolina
Temple
Pittsburgh
Boston
Tufts
NewJersey
Florida
NYU
Midwestern
Louisville
Buffalo

I'm not used to the school abbreviations yet. Hope you know what I mean when I wrote them like that.

So, any schools in that list I should leave out? Any school I should add in?
Thanks.
 
There's a sticky at the top about school choices/chances, etc. Where are you from? If you aren't from NC don't apply to UNC with those stats. You look good though other than that. Say where you are from and check the public schools you applied to if you aren't from that state for their out of state acceptances.
 
I'm from VA.
Yes I did check the sticky, and these are the schools I wrote down after looking at the stats they give.
 
what is ur bio/chem, and orgo DAT?
 
If I were you I won't apply to UNC, UF or MUSC. I'd add Nova, Case and Detroit Mercy to your list.
 
I don't quite remember the score of each science section, something like 17 bio, 20 gen chem, 19 orgo.
yes my bio score is low 🙁
 
Yeah, I wouldn't apply to UNC, MUSC, or UF either with your stats. I thought you were from one of those states. Not sure where you got them as ideas.

By "Florida" do you mean Nova or Florida university?
Cause FL is very non out-of-state friendly, but Nova is.
 
Don't waste your money with the Carolinas and Florida. Add Indiana to your list along with the schools they suggested above.

Does anyone else have any other suggestions? Thanks

I think what you have gotten so far is what the general consensus will be. Applying to state schools which are very competitive for OOS is a waste of money with a low GPA.
