ORM, non traditional, first generation college graduate, and first generation immigrant. Thank you!

Schools I plan to apply to based on MSAR:
- UIC
- Rosalind Franklin
- Loyola
- Rush?? - not sure if I have a chance due to my gpa and low volunteering
- Southern illinois??- don't have really ties to southern illinois
- Medical College Wisconsin
- Wayne State
- Seton Hall
- Loma Linda?? - not really an adventist

For DO, I plan to apply to these schools:
- CCOM
- DMU
- UNECOM
- ATSU-KCOM
- PCOM
- ACOM

KCU is out because my science LORs are not dated within 2 years of applying. MUCOM seems to prefer instate.
