Hello, I would appreciate some help on my school list. Any suggestions of schools to add or remove from the list would be appreciated. I went through the MSAR to make sure my MCAT was still in range for all the schools below. Feel like I should add more volunteering, but feels like it might look bad to adcoms because I will be adding it right before applying. Thank you.

Arizona Tucson and Michigan State (interview only 2% of non residents) admit very few non residents with a MCAT of 506 and no connection to the state. You could add these MD schools:
TCU
NOVA MD
Creighton
Drexel
New York Medical College
You have a good DO list. You could add AZCOM and TUNCOM.

Thanks for the advise. I will look into those MD schools.
