I am looking to go into ortho after med school and am looking for some research ideas. I am definitely leaning toward the D.O. path. i have worked as a paramedic for 12 years and have developed a passion and respect for the osteopathic philosophy. I will be older,39-40, upon application. My grades will be good, and I am good test taker, so the MCAT should be ok.
How much will my experience help if my MCAT is lacking. GPA will be ~3.5
science and ~ 3.7 overall. I will become a doctor, but would appreciate any and all advice to better my application. Also, i will begain to shadow a DO this summer. Do any D.O. schools have a better reputation for ortho???
Thanks for any idesas or advice.
