Depends on the school, but osteopathic medical education is getting more competitive all the time. The school I attended had a number of students who chose the DO route after also being accepted to US MD programs. I know of some students who were accepted with MCATs in the lower 20's, and others who scored 30+. GPAs probably vary almost as much. I will say that a DO school may be more likely to take experience into positive consideration.

Good luck!
