Would like a Medical School List ideally. Thank you in advance.

My ultimate goal is to start a clinic for the homeless/Low SES populations.
I understand my MCAT is rough. Seeking honest advice/opinions.

Members don't see this ad.
 
I suggest these DO schools with your stats:
TCOM
UIWSOM
Sam Houston State
ARCOM
NYIT-AR
WCU-COM
ACOM
VCOM (all 4 schools)
CUSOM
UP-KYCOM
WVSOM
MU-COM
LECOM (all schools)
PCOM Georgia and South Georgia
MD schools are unlikely with your MCAT of 499.
