Hey Everyone, I applied this cycle with low stats, working with a 3.1 GPA and 508 MCAT. Wasn't expecting a whole lot of success but thought DO would go my way. Instead I received 2 MD II's, was just rejected at one school and still have yet to hear back from the other but thinking its a rejection at this point since its been 3-4 months. Both of the MDs were in state for me. My last interview was at a DO school and the only DO interview I received but have since been waitlisted. As February is approaching it's time to start working/thinking of a plan B. I took a gap year to scribe right now so graduated my undergrad in 2019 last year. I have all the ECs I needed I believe with plenty of research, volunteering, shadowing, and orgs at a top public university. It really looks like the main thing holding me back this cycle is my GPA which was expected. My question is, should I pursue a masters? Post Bacc? SMP? just say screw it and head to St. Georges? I really do not want to spend an additional 2 years doing a masters and re-applying but I know i can do well I just had poor study habits in undergrad and have since matured a ton, just again do not want to delay this already incredibly long process. Really feeling quite lost at this point and would love some guidance and advice , thank you. PS. if you guys do know of good Post Bacc and masters program please let me know, MI is my state of residence btw.
