I don’t believe you need to apply DO as a URM with a 513. Your GPA is on the “lower end”, but the upward trend will be a big help. I think you can aim higher, as far as schools go. See what @Goro and @Faha say

 

[Faha]

Which URM community do you belong to ? If Hispanic are you fluent in Spanish ?

 

[weekendwarrior14]

Yes, but not fluent

 

[Faha]

Yes, but not fluent

You could add these schools to your application:
Duke
Boston University
Quinnipiac
Einstein
Hofstra
Loyola
TCU-UNT

Thank you for the feedback!

 

[Goro]

Yes, but not fluent

Which Hispanic community? Not all Hispanics are URM.
