I scored a 496 on my first attempt and got it up to a 500. Planning to apply to all of my state schools (TX) and 15 DO schools. Any advice is appreciated. My cgpa is 3.77 and sgpa is 3.63.

What are your ECs like? URM? Anything else particularly attractive about your application?

Your GPA is fine, but that MCAT is pretty marginal. Do you honestly think you can do significantly better? ~510?

Apply braodly and you should be OK for DO. Especially target the newest schools. UIW should be #1 on your list, for a Texan.
