Hello sdn!

So I am reapplying this cycle after being wait-listed at one school last cycle and the rest rejected. I was wondering which schools to apply to that would give me the best chances of getting in this cycle. My stats are oGPA: 3.25, sGPA: 3.18, AA: 20 TS:19, tons of shadowing, Volunteer at health clinics, working in clinical research. I am also applying to a masters program for this fall.
Hoping to get my application in soon before june ends since I think submitting my application september last cycle hurt my chances. I think around 15-20 schools is what I am aiming for so any advice would be appreciated. I am also a maryland resident and UMD is where I got wait-listed.

Thanks,
Nathan

Are you African-American? If not, remove Howard. I would add NYU and UofL. Remove Tufts. I think Lima Linda is super religious so unless your application reflects that, remove that. Remove Stony Brook. You may want to add Touro.

Definitely submit NOW! I would apply to 20-25 schools to better your chances.
