This isn't a what are my chances thread, but I was wondering what you guys would do in my situation. Obviously I want to optimize my chances for an acceptance, but I don't want to apply to 50 schools. So I was wondering what tier of schools that I should focus my applications on (I'm pretty sure that the top tier is a no go for me). Here are my stats.
3.75 GPA (4.0 past two years and fall freshman year)
-Biology major; Biochemistry minor
31 MCAT (11-8-12)
Honors College
Honors Thesis
Provost's Scholarship
Dean's List
National Dean's List
Good LORs
Biochemistry and Cellular Physiology Tutor
Pre-medical Study Abroad program in Maastricht, The Netherlands during the fall of 2004
~50 hours of shadowing ER doctor, neurosurgeon, and anaethesiologist
Human Physiology laboratory assistant
Social Fraternity
And I will be working full time this summer as a phlebotomist at a regional medical center.
Any suggestions about what types of schools I should focus on would be greatly appreciated, as I don't want to spend a few thousands on apps alone.
