Thanks for taking the time to read this post.
So I applied to strictly DO schools this cycle after taking my MCAT on 8/19. I submitted my primary app to 20+ schools on 9/8, thinking it would take at least a month to get verified. However, I was verified in less than a week and received many secondaries. The problem is I received my MCAT score today and got a 497. I was hoping I would at least crack the 500 mark. Now I am confused on what to do. I know my chances are slim to none. Should I only submit secondaries to the newer DO schools? Do I have any chance at all? I have over 300 hours of EC, and have been a D2 student-athlete. My EC's are above average and I am receiving some good LOR's. I am also receiving 2 phone calls from alumni to 1 particular school to vouch for me but I do not know what my options are. From my understanding, I can't withdraw bc I already paid and would be considered a re applicant anyway. Please help! What are my best options?
