I submitted my MD application to one school about 10 days ago to start the verification process and I am finalizing my DO application but I wanted to know if by submitting a primary application to one school if I would be considered a reapplicant. I know for MD schools it is only for schools that primaries are sent to but does this hold true for DO as well? The reason for my asking is I took the MCAT the 16th (C/P was insane) and will not receive my scores until the 18th of July but don't want to be at a disadvantage. My cGPA is a 3.57 and sGPA should be around a 3.4 for reference

Yep. Apply to a throwaway school.
