I was originally only planning on applying MD, but the new MSAR kinda scared me. The thing that makes me the most scared about getting into an MD school is my 124 cars score. Should I also apply to DO schools? Here's my brief resume.

Florida Resident

3.98 514 (131/124/129/130)

2 Research labs, no pubs but 1 very strong letter

400+ hours clinical volunteering at both hospital and free clinic for underserved. Also volunteered on ambulances

Decent nonclinical volunteering (~150 hours), mainly with underserved as well

80 hours shadowing in surgery

TA for gen chem for 3 years (very strong letter here)

Small part time job as well
 
You do not need to apply to DO schools with your stats. I suggest these MD schools:
ALL your Florida schools (include NOVA MD)
Vermont
Quinnipiac
Tufts
New York Medical College
Hofstra
Einstein
Seton Hall
Drexel
Temple
Jefferson
George Washington
Oakland Beaumont
Western Michigan
Medical College Wisconsin
Rosalind Franklin
Loyola
St. Louis
Creighton
Tulane
