You are overdoing it. No need for DO unless u really love DO medicine. U will get into MD some where. Leave the Carib school too;
~25-30 should be fine.

Depending on your state residency. I think 20 programs could be enough.

You have competitive stats.

You will just be wasting money if you apply that broadly but if it makes you feel safe and better then I would do it.

Yeah seriously drop the Caribbean. You may be interested in DO so apply to the ones you would like, but don't over do it. After that make up a list of MD schools that you would like and would be competitive at. Your gonna get in somewhere unless you somehow botch something in your application or interview up. Good luck!

I think you'd be fine with 20-25 schools, including a few DO schools.

 

[JJMrK]

Which state are you a resident of? Depending on that, I'd apply to 15-25 schools if I were you.

Cool, thanks for the advice...I've somewhat pared down my list, if anyone has time and wants to change any schools here feel free...thanks!

Florida resident

DO: TCOM, PCOM, CCOM (I know ppl. who grad. from all 3, got into residencies top 1-2 choices (MD residencies))

MD:

Reach-Tufts, Georgetown, Boston U., UF

Possibly Competitive (?) - USF, UMiami, FSU, FIU, UCF, GWU, Drexel, Rosalind Franklin, Loyola, Albany, SUNY-Upstate/Downstate, Penn State, Jefferson, Temple, SLU, VCU, Commonwealth, EVMS, U. South Carolina, Tulane, MSU

Anyplace Florida works for me...If you know of any on my list that are terrible for OOS or feel like making changes to the list, let me know, thanks! I don't care where I go in US if its allopathic...

I don't think South Carolina is very friendly to OOS applicants, and MSU has ridiculous OOS tuition. Otherwise your list looks pretty good.
