GPA: 3.45 MCAT:Pending, Need Help with Schools

[dvase813]

I am a Business Finance student trying to see if MD is even viable with my GPA. I take my MCAT at the end of June. I am a Wisconsin resident.

Additional information

~2000 hrs of clinical experience as an EMT on an ambulance
~100 hrs of shadowing
~700 hrs volunteering as a firefighter
~300 hrs volunteering as a ski patroller
~100 hrs volunteering at a refuge house for women

I own a business that I started at the end of high school. It is currently a large business with employees and numerous clients. (Sidenote: This is probably one of the reasons my GPA is low. The time required to run this business definitely took away from my classwork at times.)

I don't know if this should be something to put on an application but I developed a lubricant on my own for the automotive exhaust industry that is getting a patent (Thanks Orgo). It is a more environmentally friendly alternative to the current one that is getting phased out.

Current MD list:

University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health (WARM Program)
Albany Medical College
Morehouse School of Medicine
Rush Medical College of Rush University Medical Center

Current DO list:

Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine
Des Moines University College of Osteopathic Medicine
Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine
Rocky Vista University College of Osteopathic Medicine
Nova Southeastern University College of Osteopathic Medicine

As you can see my lists need work. I know a lot hinges on what I get for the MCAT but I thought I would ask for your advice. Thank you in advance.
