3.0 + 29. Just apply to a bunch of DO schools, you'll get into one. MD schools are out of the question though with that GPA.

Agree. Unless you want to take some time and bring that GPA up, your best bet is the DO route.

I would retake the MCAT.

Your GPA is not bad for DO school but if considering MD school, I would suggest a retake. Also, you should maybe take another year, buckle down, and raise your GPA. The course load in medical school is incredible. You have to prove to the schools that you are going to perform well despite having to learn a ton. DO school is your best shot and they take your highest grade in a class so take an extra year and retake those classes! You're going to be 100's of thousands of dollars in debt after medical school anyway. One more year of undergrad is nothing.

oppps i wrote it wrong.. i mean my gpa is a 3.3 for both not 3.0....any help would be great

That is better, but for an allopathic acceptance I think you need to retake MCAT and do significantly better and perhaps some GPA repair. You would probably need a mid 30s MCAT to give you a chance at the "lower tier" allopathic medical schools.
