won't have much luck at morehouse if you are not from georgia, no matter what color you are. With a 3.29 gpa and 30ish MCAT you have a pretty good shot. As always, apply broad.

If you got 30 or more on the MCAT, you'll have chances at many schools.

Numbers get you an interview.

Personality gets you accepted.

Would you get an interview? Probably. The rest is up to you.
