Just wondering, in case I can't get into other schools. With a 3.55 cGPA, (probably) weak EC's, and only 3 semesters until I apply, things are looking pretty bleak. 🙁
This isn't a good way to go about making a school list. Most likely, the schools that have the highest acceptance rates are public schools with instate bias, so unless you're IS your chances of acceptance will be low. When it comes time to apply, buy the MSAR and make a list of schools that are reasonable given your GPA, mcat, and state of residency.

Don't count yourself out solely by your GPA -- plenty of people are accepted to med school with a 3.5. You've got 3 semesters to ace classes and get involved in some ECs. And there's the vital MCAT.
Re-evaluate yourself when you're closer to application time.
