Hey all, I applied to 26 schools and didn't receive a single interview. I called most of the schools and 3 said that my MCAT score was too low at 30. My GPA was 3.5 so that was pretty low as well. I retook the new mcat and got a 89%, so hopefully that will help this year's application. I have strong extracurriculars so that wasn't an issue.
Anyways, my application will be verified soon and was wondering if anyone could look at my school list. I want to delete about 5 schools. I know there are a lot of reach schools on the list, but the money isn't an issue for me, nor is the time to work on secondaries. I just want to know if there's anything I'm missing such as schools that only primarily accept in state and schools that have specific requirements I won't satisfy. I included OU in there only because I was born in Oklahoma, so that's the only one that stands out to me. Thanks for any help!
