I want to apply to the Texas osteopathic schools and I have a 4.0 and 509 MCAT, is it worth it? Do I have a shot at either of them? I’m out of state.
Stats for OOS acceptances to Texas DO schools?
4.0 GPA 4.0 sGPA
509 MCAT
FL resident
~150 clinical hours
~80 research hours
200 shadowing hrs
1000 non clinical volunteering hours
Letter of rec from a DO
No gap year
Hi!! I’m so excited to apply this upcoming cycle-just a bit overwhelmed with trying to narrow down a proper school list.
I was looking at Texas osteopathic schools, I’m interested in the low tuition, but I know some have a 1-10% OOS acceptance rate. Would I have a shot at getting in to any texas schools?
(^ and also, if I went to a texas DO school would I have to take an additional Texas-specific licensing exam? I heard something about that)
Also, would I have a shot at scholarships for any other DO schools in general?
tldr: what DO schools would u recommend, and should I apply to Texas DO’s? and what are my odds at a Texas school?
