Thanks for the advice! May I ask the reasoning for removing Ohio State, Penn State, Edward Hebert, UVirginia and UWash? Is Ohio too competitive, and the rest not worth because of the volume of OOS students who apply?

Keep Hebert...my mistake

U WA heavily favors WWAMI residents

For OOS state schools, one has to be >avg., hence no Ohio, and especially no U VA Try U Toledo instead.

For Penn State, I refuse to recommend them be a use their parent body protected a child molester for >20 years.

This is ridiculous and has literally no effect on their medical school. The majority of the administration that was part of the Sandusky scandal isn't even at the school anymore. Keep Penn State on your list.

I don't give a rat's ass. I will not recommend them.
