MD c3.84 GPA 517 MCAT need help with a school list

[Freezingtoaster]

As the title says I just got MCAT scores back for the April 28 test date. 3.84 cum gpa and 517 MCAT. Biochem major with 1500 hours of undergrad research in cancer bio. I need help coming up with a school list because I'm totally lost.

WashU - definitely a reach but my bro goes there for undergrad so why not
SLU
Columbia?
Rochester
Dartmouth
Boston
KU - state school
UMKC
Oregon Health and Science - I have family in Portland so it's worth a shot
U Michigan
Case Western

Pls give me suggestions/criticize my list

So long as you have sufficient clinical experience, community service, leadership/teaching on your app, I'd say you can pretty much apply anywhere you want. However, make sure you have a solid list of mid-tiers as well:

Emory
Case Western
Dartmouth
USC - Keck
Einstein
Cincinnati
OSU
Miami
Rochester
Jefferson

Also check out OOS publics that accept a decent amount of OOS students (consider Pitt, UVA, UMich)

Good luck!

Given that you have a few schools from the northeast on your list, consider adding the following:
Albert Einstein
Hofstra
Mt. Sinai
NYU
Weill Cornell
Stony Brook
SUNY Downstate

With your stats and ECs, you have a strong chance at most places.
