I'm wondering if anyone can help me with my current list of schools. (narrowing down as well as potential schools to add to the list)
I'm a 24 y/o caucasian female from CA applying in 2020 to MD schools
cGPA: 3.88
sGPA: 3.85
MCAT: 510
Major: Neuroscience
Undergrad: Northeastern University
Research:
6 month internship at Harvard Medical School Dept. Of Neurobiology (1 publication)
6 month internship at Pfizer Dept. of Neuroscience and Pain (no publication, but very solid LOR from my advisor)
ECs:
-50 (ish) hrs of nonclinical volunteer work for American Cancer Society
-300 clinical volunteer hours at a hospital in LA
-less than 20 hrs of nonclinical volunteer work at nursing homes in Boston
-over 1500 hrs of clinical work as ED medical scribe
-100 hours of nonclinical volunteer work at an afterschool program for at-risk youth
The schools I'm currently considering applying to:
University of Vermont
University of Miami
UC Davis
California Northstate College of Medicine
Loma linda
Kaiser Permanente School
Wake Forest
Georgetown
George Washington
NYMC
Albany Medical College
Drexel
University of Pittsburgh

I have a pretty good GPA, but my MCAT is on the lower side. Are there some on here I shouldn't even bother applying to? Any to add? Any and all feedback is appreciated. Thanks!
