Gonz20:
Experience.
Gain medical experience through work and volunteer.
Get a job in a pharmacy, hospital, clinic, or ambulance service.
Volunteer at clinics, hospitals, blood drives, and soup kitchens.
Find a physician, Osteopathic or Allopathic and sit down with them and go over your resume.
Try to draw attention away from the grades with the other things you have accomplished.
Medical schools will be less interested in you if you know little about medicine or at least dealing with patients.
Osteopathic schools are particularly interested that their students KNOW what Osteopathic medicine is before it is taugh tto them
Read.....there are several books out there that can educate you about Osteopathic medicine. A good book I foujnd is
"Osteopathy: DO's in American" by Norman Gevitz.
Anyway, best of luck to you.
PS: as far as MCAT, look into taking a Princeton Review or Kaplan course.
You can find a free online MCAT offered by Princeton at
