I currently have a 3.2cgpa and 2.9 sgpa with a good upward trend. I have 608 hours as a Certified Nursing Assistant and 4,000 hours as an ED Scribe at a level I trauma center. Will be retaking the MCAT June 1st and hoping to get at least a 495.

I was wondering what my chances would be with a DO Master's or Post-Bacc program? I am thinking of applying to LECOM's Post Bacc and LMU's Master's of Biomedical Professions. Are there any others I should look into?



Thanks,

There are a number of MD schools and all DO that reward reinvention, but NOT with a 495 MCAT, which puts you square in the risk zone of failing out of med school and/or Boards.
