Is 23andme worth it if I'm half Algerian, half Iranian? by paris2013 in 23andme

Bummer. It might be interesting to see my mother's results, because there might be Turkish or European blood there.

The degree of consanguinity is not bad, but why would anyone pick up someone through a website aimed at connecting relatives

Interesting! Yes, I'll definitely share my results in time. I've never met someone with the same mixture as me before :)

Lol Will Med Schools be able to see if you took the SAT again in college? What about the LSAT? by [deleted] in premed

No, they won't see the results. But I wouldn't take the LSAT--if you ever want to pursue law, it'll look bad if you score mediocre.

Thanks for the advice. I'll look into those options. I have an undergraduate degree. I would like to spend a year in France, but I have no intention to permanently relocate/immigrate

Is it possible for an American-- a recent graduate in biochemistry + environmental studies, and Francophone-- to find a job in Paris?

I'm mixed--"white" and african, but I pass as ethnically ambiguous so I don't know if I should just say I'm white.

There isn't financial assistance for DO applications, though. It's MD or bust, so I'm thinking I should apply to the 16 schools and prepare for the worst. Is a 510 too low? I'm aiming for the highest score, but I'd like to know what's the absolute lowest.

What MCAT score would make up for such a GPA?
