MD & DO Final round of last minute additions

[bshap000]

So I just added a few more DO schools and I was wondering if there are any DO or (if its not too late at this point) MD that would be worth adding too?

Stats:
Residency: NY
Senior year Bio major, history minor at a top 50 liberal arts college
cGPA: 3.38
sGPA: 3.23 (both GPAs are about the same on AMCAS and AACOMAS)
I know the GPAs are circling the drain for MD

33 MCAT (9PS, 10VR, 14BS)

Applied, primary and secondary complete:

MD:

• Albany Med
• Drexel
• GW
• Hofstra
• NYMC
• Penn State Hershey
• Quinnipiac
• Rush
• Rosy Franklin
• SUNY Stony Brook
• SUNY Buffalo
• SUNY Upstate
• TCMC
• UVM
• USC Greenville
• VCU
• Western Michigan
• EVMS
• Sackler NY/American Program

DO:

• PCOM
• CCOM
• AZCOM
• ATSU SOMA
• NYCOM
• LECOM-E
• PCOM-GA
• TUNCOM

​

Recent Additions: DMU, LMU-DCOM, VCOM-CC, CUSOM

Current Status:

MD:

Pre - II Holds: 2 (Albany Med, GW)
Rejections: 1 (Rosy Franklin)
II: 1 (Sackler NY program)
Small pooled at UVM, nothing from anyone else
​

DO:

Pre-II Holds: 1 (AZCOM)
Rejections: 2 (ATSU SOMA, KCUMB)
II: 3 (LECOM-E, NYCOM, TUNCOM) - All attended, should hear from NY and TUN in the next month or so
Waitlists: 1 (LECOM-E) - This one really shot my confidence
​

ECs:
Plenty of research, volunteering, shadowing
Strong LORs as far as I know

Anyway, are there any schools I should add in this last round? I've seen Tulane and Temple recommended to people with similar stats.

@Goro or @WedgeDawg any thoughts?


Thanks!

At this point in the cycle, the best thing to do is continue your ECs so you can send updates later on. Adding MD schools won't help this late in the cycle.

I'm not familiar enough with DO to advise in that capacity.

Thanks to you both!
