Hello,
I'd appreciate any advice people may have. I applied this past year with a 3.65 from a top 25 university (if that even means anything) with my MCAT scores being a 28 and then a 25 (yeah it dropped due to some major RL issues). I got one interview and am currently waitlisted there. However, I took the MCAT again and received a disappointing 29 (I was scoring between 31-34 on my AAMC practice tests). I have made the decision with my advisor that this should be good enough to get into a school. Nonetheless, I want to apply broadly and make sure I get in this year... I currently have 45 schools listed and I don't feel like dropping any, but if this is way too much then I will. I can handle the expense, essays, etc. If this is excessive, what would be a good number? 30? Thoughts?
Thank you.
