So I got my MCAT score back today. Got a 504 (67th percentile). The breakdown was 124/125/127/128. This score is most certainly not was I hoping for, and I'm pretty dejected. However, I don't have time to adequately prepare for a retake for this cycle, so I am moving forward and applying (I've already submitted my app for verification). The rest of my application is pretty exceptional, so I think I still have a shot if I apply broadly. Therefore, I need help compiling a school list.

Do not try and tell me not to apply, I've already decided I'm going to. I'm posting this because I want input on a broad school list where I might have a shot.

I have a 3.923 cumulative and science GPA, I'm a Division I athlete with over 3000 hours dedicated to my sport, 550 hours of community service in support of a children's hospital, 500 hours in a leadership position of my university's largest philanthropic organization, 100 hours of shadowing in the OR and clinic, and 400 hours of clinical research at a very highly esteemed medical center/intern program (currently have 2 clinical research publications I will have my name on when they get published).

My state of residency is Indiana so I will of course be applying to IU. I'm also able to get in-state tuition for any public institution in the state of Florida so I have UF, FSU, and UCF on there. What else should I add? I'm looking to apply to about 20-25 schools. Thanks
 
The GPA-MCAT grid shows you have a 60% chance of a MD acceptance with your GPA and MCAT. You can raise those chances by applying broadly and early. Schools where you have a chance for an interview with your stats include:
Indiana
Oakland Beaumont
Western Michigan
Medical College Wisconsin
Rosalind Franklin
Creighton
Quinnipiac
New York Medical College
GW
Penn State
