Hi guys! I currently have 29 schools on my list, and I would like to shrink this to 20 if possible. Also, are there any schools that I should maybe add to this list? Also, should I apply DO, I just want to maximize my chances of getting into a medical school this cycle! Should I be concerned that I have 13 activities instead of 15? Should I add my publication (I'm like 6th or 7th author) and my presentations as separate entries? I also have about 50 hours for Social Justice/Advocacy for Vot-ER but it was for 6ish months, I'm not sure if I should add it? Thanks guys!
