too late/worth it to apply to D.O. school?

[louder74]

A few questions...

1.) Is it too late to apply to D.O. schools?

2.) Am I a good candidate for D.O. school?
-Overall GPA of 3.4, sGPA 3.2 (strong upward trend from 2.5 freshman year to 3.7 second semester soph year thru end of senior year).
- I will get MCAT score Jul. 16, and am expecting a decent score.
- I have good volunteer experience both clinical and nonclinical. I will be working as a medical scribe this summer and coming year. If I shadow a DO soon (within the next two weeks) and get my application in, do I have a shot?

With your gpa, I would guess you want an MCAT of 503+ and apply very broadly and include all of the new schools to maximize your chances for the most number of interview invites.
