GPA: 3.47 MCAT: 521
Break down: upwards trend from:
1st year: 2.4
2nd year: 2.9
(6 summer classes 4.0)
3rd year: 3.9
(6 summer classes 4.0)
4th year: 3.95 (hopefully)

ECS:

3 different hopsitals I volunteer at, been doing so for 3 years. Have around 1,500-1,700 hours all together from these hospitals. One of which is a LTC centre where I aide disabled patients.
1 School (around 400 hours being doing for 3 years.)
1 Retirement home where I help with elderly patients diagnosed with dementia (around 700 hours been doing for 6 years)
Total of 2,500 atleast of volunteering.

Long distance runner, long distance swimmer
Completed several marathons, cycling events.
Training as an iron man athlete, trying to qualify for NY marathon, Hawaii marathon and Boston marathon.
I'm 21 years old

Also not sure if I should 5th year to bring my GPA from a 3.47 to a 3.6~.

I currently live in Ottawa , canadian citizen and US citizen. Prefer to go to US because I ultimately want to practice there.

Can anybody suggest which schools I'd be a great applicant for? I highly prefer states that are along the coast or places with nice running areas for me and my wife.

So sounds like you will be considered a citizen, but OOS everywhere?

Buy the AMSAR and build a school list that is OOS friendly within your stat range.
 
Due to the lack of research, I'm more conservative.

U Toledo (maybe)
Miami
St. Louis
Wayne State
SUNY upstate (maybe)
MSU
Albany
Albert Einstein
Rochester
Rush
NYMC
EVMS
Wake Forest
Jefferson
Netter
Temple
Creighton
Tulane
USC/Keck
Gtown
GWU
Dartmouth
MCW
Loyola
USF Morsani
Emory
U VT
U AZ
U CO
U WI (maybe)
BU
Mayo
Case
Baylor OR Vandy
JHU
Pitt OR Northwestern
NYU OR Mt Sinai
Columbia OR Cornell

Any new MD school, especially Hofstra. Skip Central MI and the three new FL schools. I can't recommend CNU.
