Hello
Im a US citizen but am currently studying in The American University of Beirut, in Lebanon. The university is ranked 210 globally and best in the region, and is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. I wanted to know if i would be considered an international applicant by most medical schools. My Mcat score is 525 and cGPA 3.92 with sGPA 4.0. I am still 19 so i only have one research experience under my belt, focused on transgenic drosophila and cloning (i would like to become a geneticist after attaining an M.D. There aren't much clinical shadowing opportunities here, but i have worked with Syrian Refugees and care providers for the physically challenged on many occasions. Do I have a chance at the top schools? Am i considered an international applicant despite being American?
Thank you
