MD School List Help! GPA: 3.92 MCAT: 525

[ButWhyThough]

Hey everyone! I was hoping to get some help with my school list. Here is a brief summary of my application:

ORM
GPA: 3.92
MCAT: 525
State of Residence: Michigan

Research: 250 hours of clinical research and a publication

Work experience: 1000 hours of working as an EMT
400 hours of teaching chemistry

Volunteering: 300 hours of tutoring minority groups in my area
200 hours of clinical volunteering

Extracurricular: Recreational soccer ~ 100 hours
Tennis (mostly with friends)
Martial Arts


I come from an advantaged background (both parents are physicians) and have a special interest in dermatology. My research is pretty light, but I was hoping that the publication would sort of make up for it. Any help would be much appreciated!

I don’t think Albany Or Vermont will even look at your app

You can remove Albany and Vermont since they will yield protect. You could add these schools:
Case Western
Vanderbilt
NYU
Columbia

Thanks for the advice, was wondering if the fact that both my parents went to albany changes anything

We have like the same stats and ECs! Are you applying this cycle too?

I am though not sure how it'll turn out with all the stuff happening. Good luck to you if you are applying as well.

Legacy status does matter for interviews.
