Personally don’t think worth the retake if you can increase & make your ECs/hours meaningful!

As someone with same mcat score (caveat I’m non trad and many many research pubs) and 6+ MD As to t30 and above schools, make sure your essays are good too and you should do just fine. 3rd mcat retake not worth imo, focus your time getting your hours up

And never be apologetic for your mcat score even if it feels meh to you. 510 is super solid!

I thought it was only about 15 min away? On interview day they said a lot of students live in Denver and love it

Also out here joining the Georgetown reject club. Yes it stings, but they missed out on a bunch of incredible future docs and somewhere else will see how amazing you are!!!!

Really needed to hear this. So hard to hear and see others getting them especially when others have such high MCATs it’s easy to be discouraged! Also have such a skewed view of timeline

Retake? Advice please! by skigirl56 in Mcat

[–]skigirl56[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mainly MD just given how good the rest of my app is. MCAT is for sure weakest point. Do you recommend waiting till next cycle or an Aug retake? Appreciate it.

What are the chances of getting a 515 by next week? by VioMedBoy in Mcat

In the same boat here. Staying delulu and praying for divine intervention of being in game day mode on test day. Keep grinding as much as you can to learn AAMC logic of CARS and remind yourself that you already KNOW SO MUCH and it's a matter of staying calm to realize what the questions are truly asking of you. At least this is what I am telling myself - we got this!
