I'm a non-trad in my late 20s, looking for some guidance to create a school list for applying next year. Additionally, any advice for ways to improve my application in the next 6 months is greatly appreciated!

ORM
State of Residence: Vermont
Political science major with all pre-med courses done in a post-bacc
GPA: 4.0
MCAT: 521

Clinical volunteering: 350 hours
ER scribe: 325 hours
Shadowing: 52 hours (16 hours primary care, the rest split between oncology and orthopedics)
Research: 500 hours, and one publication likely by mid-2019
AmeriCorps VISTA: 1200 hours
Teaching (in a program sponsored by AmeriCorps but not Teach for America): 1500 hours
Competitive cross-country skiing: 2000 hours

I'd like to apply to 15-20 schools, but I only have 5 schools right now:

UVM
Dartmouth
UMich
Mayo
Pittsburgh

Thank you @Faha! Do you see any weak areas I could improve on before I apply? Should I try to get more shadowing or clinical volunteering?
