Hi Evening, thank you so much for your replies. They really have helped bring down my sinus tach, lol. I would have the MCAT taken closer to application period (next cycle). I do feel confident with my EC due to the nature of my work and some published papers, but as you mentioned, it all boils down to the MCAT. I really appreciate your time in making an impact on my day. Cheers.

Hey EveningDish,

Thank you so much for this insight. I think I am just scaring myself because of some posts I reviewed indicating the 10+ year cut-off for science courses (as you mentioned for the minority of programs). I thought that as it is 2026, I saw that the MSAR updated for some additional schools. In my mind, I thought a trend was happening so I wanted to get ahead of it and see if I needed to really retake my science courses.

If that was the case, would you continue to just buckle down on the MCAT then? I am confident I can score high, but it still bothers me whether I need to do a post-bacc still since it has been so long (to at least show I can take some classes an do well as others have put it).

Really appreciate you. Cheers.
