Hi yall,
So, here it goes. I have applied to all the DO schools. I have pretty good EC's and personal statement seems solid. I have submitted 23 secondaries so far and have 9 more to go. I sent in the majority of my secondaries early August and haven't heard back from anywhere aside from pre secondary rejection screens from Touro CA, CUSOM, and LUCOM. My plan so far is to go full force in CARS and the MCAT again if I indeed don't hear back from anywhere by January.

Question is, do you think I have a chance at receiving any love from any schools. Haven't heard anything yet so I'm feeling a little discouraged. Also, does it sound like a feasible plan to go full force on MCAT in January for the next cycle? Thanks!

You should receive some love.... not surprised you got pre-secondary rejected from those schools -- they are known to have more stringent cut off. That 122 is low, but the 500 in itself along with a decent GPA will give you a change at some of the newer schools (since you applied to EVERY DO school I would be shocked if you did not get some II)
 
Agree

Update: Have received 3 II's :)
I'm surprised LUCOM auto-screened you as you have better MCAT than I (498 with lowest 123) and that is my only II so far! Congrats on the IIs, which schools (if you don't mind sharing)?
