School List: (So Far)

MD
1. University of Washington (WWAMI)

DO
1. PCOM
2. RVUCOM-CO
3. COMP (Oregon)
4. MUCOM

Do these schools seem reasonable with my stats? If someone has suggestions for other schools I would really appreciate it. I'm open to both DO and MD programs. My only MD so far is the University of Washington. I added it since I'm a Montana resident and I'm eligible for WWAMI. I know my 123 CARS could screen me out from some schools and hurt my interview chances with others. I will likely retake my MCAT if I have no luck this cycle.
