Hey, here's my situation:

Canadian applicant. Skipped 1st year of undergrad (IB transfer credit), so though I've only done 2 years of undergrad, I'll be graduating next April. Was wondering if the fact that I've only done 2 years hurt me?

My sGPA and oGPA are both 3.89. I'm writing the DAT early July, pretty sure I'll be able to swing around 20/21.

I have decent but not amazing ECs and biochem research experience.


Here's a list of the schools I was considering:


-UoP
-USC
-Western
-ASDOH
-NOVA
-Midwestern-IL
-Midwestern-AZ
-Detroit Mercy
-Creighton
-NYU
-Buffalo
-Stony Brook
-CASE
-Oregon
-Penn
-Marquette
-Temple
-Maryland
-Pittsburgh
-Louisville
-Louisiana
-LECOM
-UMDNJ
-Minnesota
-Roseman
-Tufts
-Indiana



Ideally I'd like the get my list down to ~15, so any help with adding/removing schools would really, really be appreciated!! Thanks in advance 🙂

I don't see how that could hurt you. The biggest issue to me is your ability to showcase your maturity level, which you could do through your personal statement and interviews. To get your list down some I would recommend looking at how many Canadian applicants each school took.
 
Thanks! Any other feedback? some of the specific schools I'm on the fence about:

-ASDOH
-Stony Brook
-Oregon
-Minnesota
-Pittsburgh
-Maryland
-Michigan


Thanks!
