WAMC: MCAT: 522, cGPA:4.0, ORM, School List Help
Hi All,
I want to preface this by thanking all of you for any and all guidance you may provide (I am extremely ignorant to a lot of this). Be as harsh and as critical as you would like.
I plan to apply to MD schools this upcoming cycle (took a gap year post-graduation) and am in the process of creating a school list, but find myself in a top-heavy situation—which I know is only good for the ego. I'd love to get in this cycle and not have a horror story situation, which I know is all too...

Need help :/
Hey everyone, I need help and am willing to take any advice you have to offer. I saw someone else failed out of their smp program so I figured I’d ask. I was pretty burnt out during it and was asked to leave after my first semester. This was about a year ago.

WAMC/School list help: MA, URM, Non-trad (cGPA 3.56/sGPA 3.54/ MCAT 520)
Hey,
I am a non-trad applicant and I'm struggling with building a school list. I'm open to suggestions I am not sure what I should do or how competitive I am in general. I have a heavy research background and I've gotten a lot of clinical experience over the last year. I also have a lot of international experience. My undergrad GPA is lower. I hadn't figured out the optimal way of studying for me back then and I had a death in the family my freshman year that derailed me a bit. I'm open to...

Texas Resident WAMC/ cumulative: 3.68; sci: 3.73 (AMCAS)/ cumulative:3.72; sci: 3.79(TMDSAS)/MCAT 517.
The reason for the lower cumulative GPA is that while I started to show an upward trend after my sophomore year, I gained 2 Fs in the summer after sophomore year. This is due to me having to go to India to care for my parents and sister because they were all hospitalized and bedridden, which resulted in me failing a government and history class at community college. I did retake the classes the following summer after my junior year and got an A in both classes with 4.0s in my junior and...
