School list feedback

Hi All,

Hoping to get a bit of help with my school list. Any feedback is welcome! The Admit.org list is around what I'm considering. A few schools I added. I’ve heard Admit isn’t the best at giving school recommendations for people with unbalanced stats like me but lmk what u guys think!

NY Resident, ORM couple of gap years

MCAT: 518

cGPA: 3.61

sGPA: 3.426 (sGPA by year: 2.43, 3.22, 3.756, 4.0)

Clinical: 800 hours

Research: 1250 hours, includes around 200 of wetlab research and 1000 of gap year clinical research.

ECs:

4 years of NCAA Sport (Over 1000 hours but # of hours probably doesn't even matter here lol)

I am comfortable with applying to many schools, and just want to give myself the best chance at an MD A this cycle. Prefer to stay close to home, but open to many locations (just probably not super rural)
