I just graduated with my undergraduate degree and I am disappointed in getting a B- in my cellular biology course. The last B I received was my Freshman year and this ended up messing up my upward trend. I went from a 3.44 my freshman year to near 4.0 my sophomore and junior years to a 3.6ish...

Hey y'all! Thanks for clicking. I feel like a hail mary applicant with my stats.. What are my chances? Should I increase the number of schools I've applied to (both MD and DO) just to increase my probability of an acceptance? 1. cGPA and sGPA as calculated by AMCAS or AACOMAS cGPA: 3.3...

I wanted to get opinions on the school list I am working to slim down for applying to in 2021 and potentially get some suggestions on ones I may have overlooked. To add more context to my stats, I have 2000+ hours of clinical volunteering, 3 semesters of research, a few hundred hours of...

Hi! I would appreciate any and all advice/help about this. I would prefer to go to a medical school in California and would prefer MD but I don't know realistically what my chances are and if my only hope are DO schools in CA.

Hey SDN! I'm a 4th year DO student from an established DO school applying anesthesiology this year and was pretty bummed when I received my step 2 score back. I'm wondering how much my drop in step 2 will affect my application and if I should apply to a backup specialty. Fortunately, I was able...
