MD & DO Sacrifice Early Application Submission for Boosting GPA?

$

I obtained a B.S. in Neurobiology/Physiology 2008 from a UC. I transferred to the UC from a community college. I had one bad period during junior college that has ultimately slaughtered my gpa but I had a nice upward trend at the UC, finishing off my last year with hard science classes and 3.9 gpa average.

But, overall, my current GPA is as follows:
sGPA: 3.22
cGPA: 3.08 :(

However, by repeating a sociology class, a science course, and a health class from junior college time (with DO) replacement, I could boost my cGPA to 3.31 and sGPA to 3.32.

That is a significant difference but those grades wouldn't come till the end of summer, so when should I apply???

I currently work in a clinical testing laboratory as a quality control specialist, ad I am assisting our medical director in data analysis for a potentially published paper. I have volunteered in the ER, became certified as a phlebotomist, lots of tutoring, but no shadowing. I am a 31 yr old Californian female.

Thanks for reading.
