You could remove your high reach schools, Emory, Brown, USC Keck, U Minnesota. You should receive several interviews from the other schools on your list.

Thanks, that's good to hear. Any particular reason for removing emory/brown/keck but not pitt and boston?

Emory, Brown and Keck only interview ~ 5% of OOS applicants whereas BU is over 10% and Pittsburgh almost 9%.

Gotcha, that makes sense. Think I should keep case as my one high reach, or is my MCAT too low? Just checked MSAR and they interview/accept a decent number of OOS applicants.

Yes, Case interviews 15% of OOS applicants. It would be higher than 20% of those who completed secondaries.

Disagree. Don't remove Emory or Keck, you have a good shot here with those stats.

Ah, how do you know how many completed secondaries? Or are you just guessing based general trends?

General trend, since schools websites that disclose that information show 70% to 75% complete secondaries.
