What is your science GPA?

What pre-reqs have you completed? What are your grades in your pre-reqs? (Please list the courses taken and your grades.)

Your science grades are what will determine your competitiveness for med school, not your English or other grades.

Your ECs are fine, but without a strong MCAT and a decent sGPA, your ECs aren’t even going to get looked at.

Med schools (MD and DO) are not going “overlook” a low sGPA. A sGPA below 3.3-3.4 tells adcomms you are at high risk of failing out of med school.
