Which URM group do you belong to? Where did you apply this cycle and where did you interview?

My apologies, that was a mistake (and has been edited)! I'm Asian American.

Where did you apply and where were you interviewed?

This time add the newer MD schools if they open for 2018 (Seton Hall, Roseman, Henricopolis) and apply to at least 10 DO schools.

Your MD list is good. You could add Oakland Beaumont. You could add a few more DO schools such as WVSOM, UP-KYCOM, NOVA (DO).

Thank you so much for your advice Faha! I was thinking of adding some higher reaches: Einstein, Rochester, and U Miami. Do you think it would be a complete throwaway of money to apply to these schools?

Those schools are unlikely with your GPA.

I would add those schools! Worth a shot. People get in to great schools all the time with 3.0-3.5 GPA.
