Hello Everyone!

I am a non-traditional applicant who plans to apply next cycle 2020-2021. I plan on applying solely to DO. I am currently taking a post-bacc. Here are my stats:
undergrad GPA: 2.8
postbac GPA: 3.8
MCAT: 502
will have 4000+ hours of direct patient experience
have 250+ hours of volunteering
many other extracurriculars at the moment

Is there any suggestions or advice you would give me? I am not comfortably retaking the MCAT due to a couple of reasons but if I need to then I would reconsider it.

love boba too
if you keep up that post-bacc GPA, aiming for only DO schools, you probably don't need to retake the mcat

if you can provide specific cGPA sGPA we'd be better able to advise you

You'll be OK for DO with a broad application. Avoid the schools on my Bad Boy list
