WAMC: School Help List - Non-trad, ORM, Low mcat, Solid GPA, Solid EC's

[Dull_significance]

Requesting help on my school list! Submitted applications last week and am waiting for them to be verified. Had originally created a schools list with anticipation of a higher score- didn't end up doing as well as I'd hoped but life goes on. Do not want to re-take or re-do the application cycle so applying broadly. Happy with MD and DO (I understand my MCAT is low for MD- I intend to apply to ones that may offer a small glimmer of hope). Hoping this can help others who may be in a similar situation. Thank you in advance for any help!
