Background: cGPA 3.645, sGPA 3.987o, MCAT TBD (FL1 510, FL2 514 2 months till real), military background, thousands of clinical and non clinical work, a couple hundred clinic vilunteering, over a hundred non clinical, shadowing is sufficient, research is plentiful.
When choosing schools just by where my stats match, I have come up with what I think is a good strategy and would like some feedback on how I am picking school. Since my sGPA is >90% at every school, that is not of concern to me so I am basing/will base my schools on my cGPA and MCAT. Please advice if this(below) is a good strategy/Rule of thumb:
Format is cGPA/MCAT
Far Reach: Apply to 2: >10%/>10%
Reach: Apply to 5: >10%/>25% or >25%/10%
Target: Apply to 10: >25%/>25%
Undershoot: Apply to 5: >25%/>50% or >50%/>25%
Far undershoot: Apply to 2: >50%/>50%
Please let me know if this is a good strategy!
Obviously, I will take in to account location and mission statement.
