Hi everyone! This is my first time posting to SDN, but I am applying in the 2022-2023 cycle, and wanted to see if my school list is acceptable given my stats/experiences:
Okay now for the schools list:
Brody SOM, UNC SOM, Wake Forest SOM, Duke SOM, Saint Louis Univ SOM, Univ of Vermont, EVMS, Emory, Albert Einstein, Meharry, Geisel SOM, Geisinger Commonwealth, Virginia Commonwealth, Morehouse SOM, Rochester, Univ of Wisconsin SOM & PH, Howard Univ SOM, Wright State, Quinnipiac, Georgetown, Tufts, Univ of Pittsburgh, Thomas Jefferson, Oakland Univ William, Icahn, VT Tech Carilion, Albany, Univ of Miami, Nova Southeastern, West Virginia.
I know Emory, Albert Einstein, Geisel SOM, Rochester, Univ of Pittsburgh, Icahn, & Duke SOM are all really far reaches but I just thought I'd give it a try! Let me know if there are any schools I should take off or add, and any advice would be helpful!! I'm really interested in pursuing an MD/MPH so that influenced a lot of the schools I added to my list. Please be nice, and thank you in advance! Also I apologize in advance for any grammar errors in the post!
