Your #1 priority should be to
retake the MCAT. Took me 3 tries to hit that wonderfully high magic number (which I didn't study for the 3rd time, go figure.). Once I hit it, all the DO and MD schools I applied to were interested. Got accepted to 1 DO school and 3 MD schools. I ended up going the DO route and I haven't regretted it one bit yet.
Don't let anyone fool you.
Medical school admissions is all a numbers game. D.O. schools seem a little more interested in your personality than allopathic schools for the most part (at least from my personal experiences), however it's all the same. They have a boat load of applicants and the only way to differentiate them is to screen using numbers.
It's nice to have your pick of medical schools to goto and having a good MCAT score helps greatly. Unfortunately that is the nature of the beast my friend. If you are looking for study materials, I can't recommend the Examcrackers books and Audio Osmosis CDs enough. Practice questions are a must too. I can attest to the fact that all the stuff you learn from your MCAT preparation (minus a small part of the biology section) is utterly useless in medical school. But acknowledge the fact there are
always hoops we have to jump thru. Embrace that fact and get a hopping
Don't worry though. In your 3rd and 4th year, the paradigm changes. People become much more interested in what you can actually do rather than just raw numbers on a page. That is where common sense and the ability to actually utilize knowledge far outweighs the ability to read sleep-inducing passages on dead obscure jazz musicians during a standardized timed multiple choice exam.
My best to all of you working on getting into medical school. Keep working hard at it. It's a long road but so far I've found it worthwhile and very rewarding!
Much love,
Richie
