Hi All:
I'm new. Any suggestion for which schools should I apply with my 29 MCAT(verbal 6) and 3.8+ sGPA and fair amount of ECs?
I'm waiting for new MCAT score (I feel I did better this time for verbal, and I took it multiple times attachFull180703). But just in case, I would love to know which schools with big MD programs and fairly good chance to get in (hopefully w/o screening for particular section in MCAT score).

I live in Philadelphia. Drexel is only one in my list so far. I can get cheaper housing if I stay in Philly.

Additional info:
My cGPA is 3.8+. Currently working as a full-time lab tech.
I volunteered in several hospitals in Philadelphia (pre-med volunteer program in Penn, Jefferson etc.)
Include my current job, I have over 3 years research experience. about 8 publication/conference poster presentation/preparing;
about 2.5 years client service (job) experience. I tutored for high school for about one year.

Any suggestion for schools?
Thanks.

I don't know personally but have you taken a look at the MSAR? It has the corresponding GPA and MCAT data for every MD school in the US as well as more info about each school. It's about $20 or so to get access to it (it's online only now - you can also see if you can find last year's book version) and it's well worth it to help you narrow down your school choices.

None of us can really help you since we don't know your new MCAT. If you do well then a lot of doors open, if you score the same then it won't look too good but I think you would still have success. Score poorly and you may need to think of taking it a 3rd time.

100% agree. I believe that you'd be rejected from all MD schools and a lot of DO programs as well, including mine. No further retakes until you fix your VR deficits.
