Sensible list of schools?...Just need a quick glance over

[nvk89]

35S, 3.65 sGPA, 3.79 cGPA, Northwestern undergrad, well balanced ECs, good and varied clinical, research (only for one year, but very intensive)...

I would prefer ONLY schools in urban settings. Other than that, I just want to get in somewhere on this list. It's in no particular order.

1) Uniformed Services University (I'm going Army or Navy either way)
2) Northwestern University
3) Rush University
4) University of Chicago
5) University of Illinois at Chicago
6) NYU
7) Mount Sinai School of Medicine
8) Columbia University
9) Georgetown University School of Medicine
10) Emory University School of Medicine
11) University of Miami Miller School of Medicine
12) Boston University
13) Loyola University in Chicago
14) Ohio State
15) Case Western Reserve
16) University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center
17) Tulane University School of Medicine
18) Temple University
19) University Virginia
20) University of Pittsburgh

Thanks!

You look a little top-heavy to me. What state are your a resident of? Why Southwestern if you're not a Texas resident? (if you're filling out the app you might as well apply to all TX schools)

i can't find it, but the "LizzyM score" seems to be really helpful in determining where to apply

Looks OK to me...good luck.

I've been thinking of taking NYU and UChicago off the list because they are reach, and I don't think they'll be as receptive to my ambitions in military medicine. I thought of Southwestern because it's a good school and a reach, but since I'll be spending a lot of time in Texas with the Army, it would have nice.

With only one year of research experience, you might consider removing Emory and Columbia as well. UTSW also loves extensive research backgrounds.
