hi everyone. i was accepted to several SMPs (one MD in CA and the rest DO in CA and other states). i graduated last year w/ non-science major.
uGPA: 3.3
sGPA: 2.8 (BEFORE post bacc)
after postbacc: cGPA 3.35
sGPA: 3.01
MCAT: 508
volunteering: thousands of hours with 2 major organizations
work: 5k+ hours as a scribe in over a dozen medical clinics -- worked for my last 2 years of undergrad and in the year since graduating
great LORs from MDs with whom i worked
i applied to several med schools (all DO) and was rejected from all of them. should i do one of these master's or work (tangentially related to medical field with a good salary), retake MCAT, and reapply more broadly?
i hate the idea of doing ANOTHER year of school in addition to med school. this job is somewhat related to medicine, pays well, would give time off for interviews, etc.
