What about William and Mary appeals to you? Do you have any hooks, e.g., URM, legacy, first-gen, etc.?

OOS acceptance rate was 31% for class of 2023: https://www.wm.edu/admission/undergraduateadmission/facts-figures/admission-stats/index.php

Mid 50% SAT was 1320-1510, so right now W&M is a reach for you…even if you get your SAT up to 1350, that would be below the median, and still a reach. OOS scores of accepted students are typically higher as well. Where do your M and EBRW section scores fall? https://www.wm.edu/admission/undergraduateadmission/facts-figures/testing/index.php

When looking for an undergrad college for pre-med, it’s best to be in the top 25% with regard to GPA, rigor and test scores. You also want to avoid colleges with grade deflation…this can be hard to identify, but IMO W&M is probably in that group.

What state are you in, and is your state flagship appealing to you? Certainly you can apply to W&M, just make sure to have a balanced list including match schools, as well as one affordable safety that you would be happy to attend.
