I really need your honest advice.
I am 34 years old, with two little beautiful children and a husband that is very supportive. I have 8 years of nursing experience (6 in neuro medical ICU). I have worked as a charge nurse; I have been in management related position, done research that is related to improving the health of respiratory compromised ICU patients. I have been in three different medical missions out side of US and also helped establish an organization that will be traveling abroad to do yearly medical missions in Africa. I have volunteered in homeless clinic and elderly homes since 2008. Volunteering in other places also. I am also a SIM Lab instructor to new ICU nurses by giving them scenario on simulation manikin using critical patient events.
I have more than three physicians that work with me that are willing to right me LOR and definitely my supervisor, and also others are willing to write me LOR.
My GPA is over 3.7 (both science and non-science) & I have taken MCAT twice and the second time I raised it up to 22 (November 2014) and I have no interest of taking it again. Verbal was my weakest areas as English is my third language.
I am applying to the class entering 2016, however, I want to know my options and how I should go by presenting my self. I will do a few DO schools but what do you think about MD schools?
Your advice is very much appreciated!
