You have a good GPA and MCAT. Strong extracurricular work.
I dont think applying to SUNY medical schools is a good idea, as a California Resident. There is a strong preference for in-state. Besides that yes its a good list.
 
Thanks! Do you think that my GPA blip in sopohmore year is really really bad? I'm stressing out about it
