So I have submitted 10 apps total. 7 DO, 3 MD. I have three DO II, at NYITCOM-AR, ACOM, & LUCOM, with 1 MD rejection. I am thinking about submitting maybe 2 or 3 more DO apps, just would like some input on where I may have the best chance. Also, I am from a rural underserved town in the Southeast.
Stats: Non-trad
cGPA 3.37
sGPA 3.68
post-bacc GPA 3.72
MCAT 506
>4000 hours working in an ER and another ~500 as an EKG/tele tech
~300 non-clinical volunteer hours
~100 clinical volunteer hours
Leadership: was an assistant manager at a gym, member of an advisory committee in undergrad, peer mentor in undergrad
No research.

Schools I have applied too: ACOM, NYITCOM, LUCOM, CUSOM, VCOM, RVUCOM, LMU-DCOM. Let me know what you think. Thanks in advance

Good stats, good ECs, apply anywhere you'd want to go at this point really. I'm gonna shill for DMU a bit, loved their campus. Maybe throw an app their way?

Same as above, you seem to have pretty solid stats/ECs for most DO. I would say apply to schools that don't have strong regional preferences (so maybe not PNWU, VCOM, MSUCOM, etc.).

Edit: Since you're from the SE, maybe PCOM-GA? They do have strong regional preference.

It's a little late and your chances aren't quite as high at this point. If there's a school you haven't applied to that you really want to attend AND you think you stand a reasonable shot of getting into, go ahead. If you're satisfied with your current situation, leave as is.
