For personal reasons I won't elaborate on here, I plan on applying to over 30 schools (MD&DO). No, I don't have a state school.
I have a 29 MCAT (9 BS, 11 VR, 9 PS) and a 3.75cgpa/3.8sgpa from a top10 ugrad. I'd say I have fairly good/extensive research, volunteer, clinical, shadowing and leadership experiences. I'm also getting a letter of rec from a DO. I'm also a first-generation White/Hispanic, but I'm nearly certain I wouldn't count as a URM.
Generally speaking, in your opinion how many (and which) DO schools should I apply to?
In addition to many low/mid-tier MD schools, right now I plan on applying to PCOM, CCOM, TCOM (I have fairly strong ties to TX), UMDNJ-SOM, TouroNY, NYCOM and NSU.
Do you think I am fairly safe with these schools? Or is there a significant chance I won't get into any of them, in which case I should apply to which other schools?
I appreciate your help.
