DO schools: Chances/Advice

Advertisement - Members don't see this ad

I am applying to DO schools with a 29 MCAT. A cGPA of 3.35. 3.34 for non-science. 3.37 science. I had a rough first year of college (think C's and one D). But everything since my first year of college has been A's, A-'s and a few B+'s. I have applied to four DO schools so far. Should I be applying to more? What are my chances of being accepted anywhere?

In addition, does anyone have any advice for me?

Thanks!!

I think you'll have success this cycle, but you need to apply to more than 4 schools. 10 would be a safe number.

Which 4 have you applied to already?

I have applied to DMU, AT Still, Rocky Vista, and Kansas City. I am also adding Pikesville, Lake Erie and Michigan to the list.

Your chances are excellent, and yes, you should apply to more.
