Hey guys, new member here. I’m a slightly non traditional student (mid 20s). Just decided what I wanted to do a little later in life.
Was specifically hoping to learn more about my chances at MD/DO schools around Mississippi. Any insight/advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance

7. Clinical Experience: 1000 hours, radiation oncology at local VA hospital during two summers of HS.
