My application was finally verified (YES!) and I am hoping to submit to my programs soon. Unfortunately, there is some kind of issue with AACOMAS, so I am hoping some of you lovely people can help me with my school list! If there are any schools on my school list that may be out of reach or don't accept many Out of State students, please let me know. I am also having trouble securing a DO letter, but am sure I'll get it eventually. If I don't, I will be using a MD letter.

I'm not sure what your new mcat score translates to but if it's equal to or better than a 25, you definitely have got a shot. I expect that you'll have several options, albeit, they may not be your top choices. Good luck

I'm not sure what your new MCAT translates to (I think about 27?)

If so I would probably remove
CCOM (avg MCAT is closing in on 30)
Rowan (IS bias, though they might be ok with NY)

I think the rest is fine. you should have a good shot at a lot of schools.

Keep Rowan in my opinion. Many OOS people dont apply because they're scared of the IS bias screening but they just screeen themselves out instead!
