Hey everyone, my stats are as follows:

3.4 oGPA, 3.23 sGPA
22AA/24TS/21PAT, but 17 QR (these scores are after retake)
Decent ECs, and upward trend in GPA

How does this look, and what schools do you think I should apply to? Also is the 17 QR going to hurt my chances a lot (if so, to which schools)? I have no idea where to apply with these stats 😕
 
I'd be worried about the low sgpa. The 17 on QR isn't taken into too much consideration from what I understand. Overall you're in good shape if you apply to schools with lower gpa averages. There is a link for it somewhere on this website.

Assuming you're neither an international applicant nor an under-represented minority and did all your pre-reqs at a 4-year university,

Do apply to:
New York University
Columbia
Tufts
Boston
University of Southern California

Do NOT bother with:
Harvard
University of Pennsylvania
UCLA
Howard
Meharry
and basically all other public schools.
 
Thanks guys, what about UMD? I was thinking about applying to UPenn, what do you think would keep me from getting invited there

Your gpa and sgpa are too low for upenn, sorry. Average sgpa at upenn is like a 3.62
 
I think your DAT scores are competitive enough that you don't have to apply to too many. Maybe 12 or so? It really depends on where'd you could see yourself going as well.
 
I have similar stats as you:

3.45 oGPA, 3.28 sGPA
21AA/21TS/20PAT, but 17 QR

I applied to:

NYU
NOVA
Tufts
USC
Maryland
UPenn
Temple
Columbia
UF
UCLA
Boston
UCSF

hope that helps
