You should have just taken your arse to an Osteopathic school

My primary care physician is an Osteopath. He's good at what he does and we like him other than the fact that he went to Ole Miss for undergrad.

I know people with 29-31 MCAT scores that had trouble getting into the urban osteopathic schools on the first try. They are mostly private and don't usually have an "in state" preference like LSU or Alabama does, so it never hurts to apply broadly to schools like PCOM, etc. Most of them do seem to be pretty selective though.

It seems like DO and MD schools in the US are slowly expanding their class sizes....which will probably make it more challenging for Caribbean grads to compete for residency slots eventually.
