Hey guys,
This is a re-post from the MD WAMC section.
I am a first time user and pretty new to this, but wanted to seek some help as I'm struggling with the application process. I graduated summa cum laude (GPA 3.97) last year with a degree in Health Sciences from a public research university. This year, I've been working in a musculoskeletal research lab on an animal study examining lower back pain. I have 700 hours of clinical observation, 500 hours of volunteer work and was an NCAA collegiate athlete.
However, I am not a good test taker. I studied my tail off this year for the MCAT and received my score yesterday, got a 500. While I know this limits my chances tremendously for MD schools, I was looking for some advice/suggestions on MD/DO schools in which I may be competitive as I plan to apply this cycle.
Any advice on schools in which I may be competitive? Thank you!
