Hello all,
This isn't a neuroticism post, this is an advice post. I'm trying to build my school list and I'm not sure if I should be applying mostly low/mid/high. With my stats I'm basically guaranteed an interview at my state schools, but I have zero direction where to apply beyond those. I want to apply strictly MD because I have 0 experience with DO's so I wouldn't be able to write about it well in a DO application. I also don't know if I'm disadvantaged so I would appreciate some input about it.
TIA
