Hello everyone! This is my first post on SDN and I am super excited to hear what you all have to say! I am looking to apply to DO school, but am taking a 1-2 year gap period to work and save up some money. I am currently working at a drug infusion clinic as a patient resource specialist. I graduated college with a health sciences degree and my GPA is a 3.494. I shadowed the chief of surgery and observed over 30 surgeries, I was in a 2 year leadership program at my school in which I volunteered over 200 hours (including in the ER), and this may not pertain but I was assistant manager at an auto shop (maybe that shows well-roundedness and leadership skills) while I was in college. I have not taken the MCAT yet, but am going to be taking a prep course starting in October and then I will study on my own as well. I know not much can be said for GPA alone, but say I do well on the MCAT, are my chances with this GPA good? I would love to go to pretty much any DO school in the nation, but have my eye on LECOM, ACOM, and AZCOM. I should be 24 if I start DO school in 2 years after my gap period.
