I just got my MCAT score back and would love some advice on which schools I should apply to. I'm 30Y old male with previous experience in education-related fields.
Right now, here's my school list:
1. University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health
2. Medical College of Wisconsin
3. George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences
4. Georgetown University School of Medicine
5. Kaiser Permanente Bernard J. Tyson School of Medicine
6. Oregon Health & Science University School of Medicine
7. Robert Larner, M.D., College of Medicine at the University of Vermont
8. University of Colorado School of Medicine
9. University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine
10. Albany Medical College
I'm looking for 10 more schools I should add. Do you think I should add any ivy league schools, or is my lack of research a problem for top schools? If you have any ideas for places where my rather unique profile might fit, I'd be super curious.
Thanks in advance for the advice.
Thanks all
