Should I still apply to DO medical schools as a Canadian applicant?

[pinkgirl123]

Canadian applicant, 3.6 cgpa/sgpa with upwards trend. 494 mcat. 2 LOC from DO's, 50 DO shadowing hours, 100 shadowing/volunteer hours in developing country, 3k hours of tutoring, etc. Do you guys think it's worth applying this cycle?

Not with that MCAT score. You're in a risk zone for failing out of med school and/or failing Boards.

even with a break down of: 125, 121, 125, 123? in the sciences i got 125 but cars and psychology really dragged my score

Yes. You need to show competency in all of these areas
