Applying without MCAT
Started by SoleScholar
Get as high score as you can and apply DO at least. Or, I would get accelerated BSN if you have bachelor's already. Work for 1 year in ICU and go for CRNA. The pay and job is much better. CRNAs don't bring work home. Pay is significantly higher. Work hard now. Don't settle.
MCAT first everything else later.

I don't think I can get into DO school.
You're making huge a mistake if you settle for podiatry as your only choice to being a called a 'doctor'. It's very easy to get into podiatry school, but 'staying in' is hard and, even if you succeed, it's a terrible ROI for most graduates starting out. You'd be better with DO or something else. I can't wait to see you in a few years with podiatry to see where your mind is at on the profession and the job outlook itself. Good luck.
Why not? If you can get good MCAT with good studying you should be able to.

GPA. Cum is like a 3
I applied before I took the MCAT (almost 2 decades ago now). I got accepted to the school of my choice, and they gave me a deal saying as long as my score was at or above this number (forgot) I would be able to attend.
Not sure how things have changed since then.

Wait for the score, then apply, Feb is still early. You want to apply when you have every part of the app completed. Good luck!
