I think you can reach some of the top tier ones like Brown, Northwestern, etc. Depending on your state (which you didn’t state), certain med schools might be a much better deal for you financially. I think depending on the school, you might be unhappy going to a low-tier program. I would try to improve on your Leadership, Volunteering, and Shadowing, and hopefully you’ll get something published during your research stint.

I would also shadow to make sure you realize the realities of medicine and what you’re getting into - like the inpatient side of the hospital. There are other fields involved in healthcare: Pharmacy, Dentistry, Physician Assistant, Nurse Practitioner, etc. that might not only be better financially but also better with your work hours.

Here’s a starting list: http://www.■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■/BA_MD_programs.html
