This is just an initial list I created and I definitely want to refine it and remove schools because I do not want to write secondaries for 44 schools. Would really appreciate some advice on schools to maybe remove or any one's that may be good to add. I know I have a few pretty big reaches on here but I figured I would give them a shot anyway because why not.

Welcome to the forums.

Many non-clinical volunteering hours with children are considered teaching (science camp, health education, youth recreation). When did you work as a firefighter vs. EMT? Strike the places where you would not want to live if it were the only school that gave you an offer. If you live around NYC, what would make you want to live in Kalamazoo (Western Michigan)?
