I have made a list of all the schools that I'm planning to apply to, and would like some input on which ones to cross off of my list and if there are any others to add.
Info about me:
BC resident
GPA 3.6 (4.3 scale)
MCAT 516(131/127/131/127)
~3000 research hours (~2800 of them employment and 200 volunteer) 2 papers submitted for pub. but not published yet (3rd author+ on both)
~120 hours of community involvement
Schools I am applying to:
UBC: I don't think I have any chance of getting in because both my GPA and my EC are not enough but I'm applying anyways
University of Saskatchewan: Not entirely sure about my chances but I meet their CARS score requirements for out of province applicants
University of Ottawa: No idea what my chances are as they do not look for the MCAT and I'm not sure if I should apply
Queens: No stats given, don't know if I should apply
McMaster: I could not find requirements for out of province applicants so I am not sure about this one either. Their in province requirements seemed quite low (123 CARS and 3.0 GPA in 4.0 scale)
Northern Ontario
McGill: they say they will consider my MCAT score and my GPA as 50/50 for my academic requirements which is good. Don't think I have much of a chance of getting in, but I'm applying anyway.
I am not really a competitive applicant for any of the schools I'm applying to as far as I know, so should I be thinking of DO schools instead?
