I am begging at this point. Thanks!

I wouldn't worry too much about the 8 in verbal. If you had a 7 I would start to worry. Your list looks good. If I were you I wouldn't apply to Mayo, BU, Dartmouth, or NYU and spend more time writing high quality secondaries for the schools on your list that are more in range.

I think she has a decent shot at NYU, I have known kids who gotten in with similar stats.

According to the latest MSAR, NYU's 10th percentile GPA is already a 3.65. Personally, I would only apply to schools where my GPA is in their 10th-90th percentile range.

Osprey, why do you suggest deleting University of Missouri - Kansas City? I have been telling myself that this will be one of the first to be deleted from my list, but I'm not sure why I came to that conclusion.

Most of UMKC's students are in the combined program BA/MD. They only have like 5-10 seats per year for normal MD admissions (you might want to double check their website on that). Since you're not a Missouri resident, I don't think I'd apply there.

Okay, thanks Sector.
