As of right now your chances are lethal. You need to ace either a DIY post-bac or SMP, and demonstrate that you can survive med school.

What year are you in college? If you're a junior or a senior then this isn't the end of the world. You should apply to a masters program and get your GPA up. Take your time and try to ace all of your classes. Don't be discouraged, if this is really your dream then it will all be worth it in the end regardless of how long it took. A lot of people take this route and are successful. Good luck!

Concur. I'd probably do an SMP, preferably one with a guaranteed II at a medical school and ace it. Good luck.

You're not ready for an application this cycle man. Nothing wrong with taking an extra year to do an SMP or post bacc. The average age of starting DO students is like 25 I believe, and you'll find tons of people on here who are older than that. Pushing back your matriculation and graduation one year is not a big deal in the grand scheme of things.

And dont take the MCAT until you're ready, either. Don't rush into this!
