    Hello,

    I just finished the first year of medical school at an osteopathic institution with good academic standing and I would like to transfer to an allopathic school for personal reasons. I feel that my degree will always be scrutinized and not quite as equally accepted as an M.D. degree. I always wanted to practice medicine, however my MCAT score was too low for an allopathic school: 24 (I took it twice with scores 10PS 6VR 8BS and 9PS 6VR 9BS). My science GPA was 3.5 and an overall GPA of 3.7. I am conversationally fluent in 3 languages, however I started learning English only in High School in the U.S., and I think that this was the reason for my difficulty with the verbal portion of the test. I know that my reason for transfer is not as compelling, but it is important to me. After working so hard for a medical degree I would like it to be recognized as such without doubts or questioning.

    Thank you for your time.
