I think this question applies to most people on this forum, although I haven't found a sufficient thread regarding it.
First, I'm starting a DO postbac this fall, and I just finished applying to DO schools this week. I put in the coursework section of my app what classes I plan on taking in my postbac this year. My question is do what other steps do I need to take to ensure that schools give me a chance by waiting for after my postbac grades come in before making a decision. I dont want to take another year off.
Secondly, should I even bother applying to MD schools. I was a borderline applicant for a DO postbac, 3.0 gpas, 30 MCAT, so i am not confident that MD schools will take me seriously before i complete my postbac, if then.. My only deficiency is grades.
Thoughts would be great.
Thanks
