Hello! I am an incoming OMS-1 who is leaning heavily towards PM&R. I am starting med school soon and could use some wisdom as my biggest fear is going unmatched, so I am trying to get a head start on this. I am attending MSUCOM which has it's own AOA recognized PM&R program and a lot of...

Anyone know anyone who has gotten into medical school (either MD or DO) with a 499? If so, what was their ECs, GPA, which medical school was it, ... etc? Thank you!

What are my chances to get into a DO program? What programs would accept me? Or should I apply to post bacc/ or masters program? I have a 2.88 GPA. BS in Human Biology. I have not taken the MCAT (January 2019). I am 26yrs Female African American. I have well over 2000 hours of clinical...

Can one be a doctor as a DO and an MD? I used to have this professor that went on and on about how a student of his was a doctor of both osteopathy and medicine. His story goes as she was a DO student who just had to take a test to also get her MD while she was taking her exams for DO. He said...

Hi all, I'm trying to set up an excel sheet for myself so I can tell which DO programs I could realistically get into. I'm having trouble, however, as most of the schools' websites post the minimum GPA & MCAT scores needed to get in, not the average accepted scores. Does anyone know if there...

Hello Everyone! I have seen that this is a continued topic of debate, and I am going to go ahead and throw myself to the wolves so to speak! (Just kidding! The information that I could get from this-pros and cons-will be incredibly helpful for me to make this decision). :) This is the age old...

Hi all! Kind of a non-trad here. I'm currently considering DO school, as I've had a sudden spark in interest. Figured I'd look into it a little more. My problem is, I have extremely minimal background in sciences. I graduated with a BA in Policy Studies concentrating in Health, Crime and Human...

I decided to apply to DO schools for this cycle even though it is pretty late. I made a personal statement, but honestly I am a terrible writer, and I was looking to see if anyone could edit and go through it . Thanks for any help

I read forums again and again, and I see the same thing. What are my chances,,, stats, stats, bull****, more stats. Always playing the algorithms that medical schools use to weed out the weak. This post is not about my chances of getting into medical school, it's an open invitation to tell me...

Hello to all my insightful predecessors. I am currently studying for my MCAT for July 27th, and my ambition is to become an emergency medicine physician. I'm going to apply for this years cycle to MD, but I am considering DO. The holistic and hands on approach they partake is one that really...

Hey Guys, I'd really like your opinions on this. I am currently starting an ABSN and finishing up the rest of my pre-med prerequisites. I have about a 3.3 or 3.4 gpa currently with my final grades calculated in. It will continue to go up in the program. I am stuck between becoming an DNP or...
