[tragedy]

3.2 overall GPA and about same with science GPA. Interested in DO school. Not sure if I have a chance at MD. Volunteering at the hospital, shadowing an MD, and soon a DO, volunteering non clinical at various organizations such as American Cancer Society and American Lung Association. Involved in 4 clubs at my University. Have not taken MCAT's yet but will in 3 months! Aiming for a really high score to make up for my low GPA. Taking extra science courses at my University to get a higher overall/science! So hopefully I will end up higher than a 3.2 Have recieved some C's during my undergrad, gen. chem, and organic chem (not my strong subject!).. so a few questions:

1) which DO schools will most likely accept me?
2) should i consider retaking gen chem or just orgo chem? i think i read somewhere that DO looks highly on grades from orgo chem..

I would appreciate the feedback... 🙄

3.2 is a bit low, so I would recommend you do some grade replacement. Wthout an mcat score there's not much more I can't tell you . But I will tell you that you'll need a higher mcat score to compensate for the lower end gpa.
