Hello all,
I'm having issues knowing where to apply and wanted some advice. I think I want to go into emergency or IM so I wanted to know which programs have good match rates for quality residencies. I don't care about location (not married, no children).

My stats are as follows
Biochem undergrad cGPA-3.8x
Biochem masters - 3.9x
ChemE masters 3.6x

MCAT- TBD (BP FLs average 511)

Disabled combat veteran

research hours
~7k hours
2 first author pubs, 1 patent, 3 poster presentations (one of them won the poster competition)

TAing
~3.5k

leadership (infantry fire team leader, noncommissioned officer)
~3.5k

Volunteering
clinical~ 70
nonclinical~300

Paid clinical (medical assistant)
real~ 700, projected 3.5-4k

What's a realistic school list of midlevel and reach schools I should apply to? I'm pretty much guaranteed an II at my state schools because I'm over their instate minimum reqs.

Nobody will be able to give you a good school list without an MCAT score, unfortunately. The score is necessary because small differences in scores can change the school list pretty substantially - for example, a 513 MCAT scorer would be competitive for different set of schools than a 510 scorer.

Generally speaking, if you end up scoring around your practice scores, you will be competitive for a lot of MD programs and all DO. Your application looks really good overall. When do you take the MCAT?
