3.1 cGPA 505 MCAT

[MadeinTYO]

Hello all I'm going to graduate this spring with Bio degree. I have 2 years of research under my belt in most pharmacology, tons of leadership experiences, volunteering, and solid clinical experience which includes clinical research.

What are my chances for med school? Either for MD or DO?

I am a URM (Black), but I really feel like my GPA is too low for MD. I think I may have a chance at DO.

What are some possible schools I could apply to? What are my options?

You have a shot at your state school and the HBCU's, at a minimum.

What about DO? My state school average GPA for accepted applicants hovers around 3.7

You are fine for DO schools. Apply to at least 10 and you should receive several interviews. For MD you could try your state schools and consider these:
Howard
Meharry
Moorehouse

Oakland Beaumont
Western Michigan
Quinnipiac
New York Medical College
Drexel
