I submitted 22 MD apps(secondaries and all) but have not heard back from anywhere yet although it is quite early in the cycle to be hearing back. Have been thinking what are my chances of getting in if I applied this late to DO.

The DO cycle is longer and so you're fine. You're fine until T-giving, actually.

Definitely apply asap. If you can find a DO to shadow to get that LOR.

I don't even know if it would be worth your time or money applying DO with your stats. I don't see why you wouldn't land MD.

OP can apply a month before the deadline and still be pretty safe with those stats.

For curiosity's sake, why did you retake a 510?

I'm an ORM and so I felt I needed to improve my score especially since my GPA isn't that great either.
