Hello guys,
I would really appreciate if you can give me your input about my list of schools....(so far????). I have not taken the mcat yet, but so far I have good grades, good ec's etc......unfortunately I am an international student (F-1 visa holder).

Baylor College of Medicine
Creighton University School of Medicine
Harvard Medical School
Howard University
Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicin
Meharry Medical College
Morehouse School of Medicine (very questionable...)
Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine
Tufts University School of Medicine
Tulane University School of Medicine
Vanderbilt University School of Medicine
Washington University School of Medicine
Yale University School of Medicine

thanks for the change
 
Well, I know people are going to want you to list your stats but from what I can see this is a pretty broad range covering the spectrum. I thought about applying to Mehhary but I'm white and even though I think the school is great I wondered if I would be competing against people who are black and want to be there for that reason in particular - which I totally respect.
 
Being too lazy to consult the -big-book-of-horrors (aka MSAR) regarding international student admissions, I'm tempted to say that you've got too many big-name schools and not enough mid range ones. If you can afford more, I'd add 'em. If I had to tailor your list to my liking, I'd knock off Yale and Wash U. Add say...Medical College of Wisconsin and maybe George Washington. (Only if they admit international students). Finally...good grades are great but if you've got to wait for the MCAT scores to really know what your list should be. Key is as many schools as possible, tailored to your stats.

good luck!
