  3. State of residence: Florida
  4. Ethnicity and/or race: Spanish (Cuban)
  5. Undergraduate institution or category: UCF
  6. Clinical experience (volunteer and non-volunteer): 120+ Hours at Hospital. 100+ hours internship at a doctor's office

  12. Anything else not listed you think might be important: I do not have a real job but I am a freelancer online and sell java programs to others. I also trade stocks in my free time (Not sure if i should include these in my application or not but I have made some decent money doing it and it allows my time to be flexible).
Schools I plan to apply to:

All Florida schools, Tulane, Penn State. Still looking for more schools to apply too. Any suggestions and other schools to add? Looking for a well balanced list of schools

You should receive several interviews from your Florida schools. What other regions of the country are you interested in?

I'd prefer to stay in the SouthEast but I'm willing to go where ever I'm accepted to.
I looked into South/North Carolina and Alabama but I've heard they mostly only accept in state people?

You could try these schools:
Wake Forest
Eastern Virginia
Virginia Commonwealth
Most of the state public schools have a strong instate preference.
