Since the 2020-2021 application cycle is coming really close, I have no idea how to improve my application or what my chances are. As things become more competitive, it becomes more difficult to gauge accurate competitiveness. Do I have a chance at low/mid tier MD and high tier DO Schools (CCOM, Des Moines, KCU etc.)
