What are my chances of DO school

[MiPreMed]

Hey guys

So I’m planning on applying to medical school this week and just got my third MCAT score back, scores went 490-492-497. I know they’re not great but was wondering if it’s worth applying. I have a 3.84 cGPA, about 3.75 sGPA. I have tons of extracurriculars, and almost 5,000 hours of patient contact. Let me know what you guys think, i was hoping for some DO schools if possible. Michigan resident. Thanks!

I’d retake at at least break 500 before applying

One last question, my brother goes to MSUCOM, do you think that would benefit me at all? Thanks for helping!

Yes, you could try MSUCOM.

I'm pretty sure a good chuck of those schools screen out MCATs below like 123 in any subsection...so that would be something to look up and take into consideration. Also pretty sure the average MCATs for some of those are a little more like 504-506? I definitely am not an expert, just speaking from my experience applying to some of those!
