Hey everyone - My MCAT scores are an eyesore: 20N (Sep 2010), 21Q (Aug 2011), 23 (received two days ago; May 2013). MD is definitely out, but I am still hopeful for DO. My other stats:
3.5 MS in Biology GPA
3.62 cGPA for undergrad
...3.4 sGPA
Solid LORs (One from a DO, too)
Lots of clinical exposure and experience - I worked in a Level 1 ER as a clinical researcher for 15 months (20-25 hrs/week). I have lab research experience (1 year total), teaching experience (1 year tutoring and 10 months as an Adjunct Prof), and lots of volunteering (ER, teaching assistant, Habitat for Humanity). I have other work experience/"real world" exposure too, as I have taken a few years off prior to applying to medical school.
Bottom line - I know my scores are crummy, but I have seen a lot of posts indicative that I am not entirely out of luck yet. Any thoughts?
I appreciate your honesty and realistic views on my situation. Thanks!
