Hey guys...I need some help! I took my MCAT this summer and am currently applying to DO and MD programs. My MCAT score was abysmal, I got a 28S, and I am retaking it in three weeks. My GPA is a 3.6 but my science GPA is more like a 3.4, so it's not too great either. What sort of chances do I have? Should I apply to D.O right away or wait for a better MCAt score? Also, what should I do about the MD schools, I'm tempted to apply now because I'm worried about being later, but I'm also realistic and realize that my MCAT is not ideal. The thing is I'm an illinois resident so instate admission is going to be just as hard as out of state in most cases. Otherwise my extra curriculars are great, I have lots of clubs, volunteering and clinical research, and I have two pending publications, and I co-authored a paper with some local physicians. What are my chances, I'm just looking for some advice! Thanks so much guys!
