Hi i am a canadian citizen at a US university in VA. Please help me selecting schools that i can apply for.

Here are my stats:
MCAT-30(i didnt take it yet but a projection)
3.67 GPA
3.59sGPA
Research on low temperature kinetics
Computational Data Sciences teaching assistant
Summer Research at Walter Reed Medical center on TB
Created a volunteering organization that tutors students from low income families.
Shadowed an anesthesiologist for three years in the OR with direct patient contract pre and post surgery
Worked as an ER scribe and had direct patient contact

What are my chances?
Where should i apply taking into account my citizenship?
Particularly interested in Georgetown medical school and Howard medical school.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you very much

These can help you start your research on creating a list:
US Schools Policies on taking Internationals: http://www.naahp.org/Default.aspx?tabid=2559
**Canadian friendly school list (needs updating): http://www.premed101.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19065

Or, you could look at the MDApps for other SDN Canadians and see where they applied.

You can see average matriculant stats for US schools here (it is downloadable so you can fill in your own stats):

An old copy of the MSAR would be helpful for school missions and important other inforamtion. Your prehealth advising office should have one.

Here are AAMC stats including averages for Canadians, which suggest that you should aim for a higher MCAT score: http://forums.studentdoctor.net/showthread.php?p=10355297
