Hello everyone this post has been a long time coming and I figured while I sat here scribing that I would type it up since I have received an abundance of private messages.
I want to begin by saying I am an outlier and I feel humbled and lucky to have an acceptance at one of my top choices this early on.
My Stats:
- Less than a 2.7 cGPA.
- Less than a 3.0 sGPA,
- Last 60 credits of upper division sciences at a 3.8 GPA
- 506 MCAT (127-123-129-127).
- 4500+ hours as a scribe.
- Couple hundred hours of volunteering with underserved communities.
- Significant story of overcoming multiple obstacles.
- 1 first author publication
- Great LORs
- 3 DO LORS
- Great personal statement (At least from what my interviewers told me)
- Deans list for the last four semesters of my college career
Accepted to two osteopathic medical schools including one of my top choices.
I am sure I have left something out and as the questions come in I will add/update my post.
Again, I am very lucky to have one acceptance let alone two and I feel very lucky and I know that this will not be as representative for each applicant but I wanted to address everything out in the open!

... I got an II on ICOM December first, any tips? Also, ACOM dean told me my application is great other than my MCAT states that it is two points below their competitive. I asked them if I retook it in January will they reconsider me, and they said yes. What's your opinion on retaking my MCAT in January?
