Hey guys,
Just got my MCAT results today. I got a 35Q and my only gripe with it is the low and unbalanced verbal. I was planning on applying this cycle with anything over a 35 and but the verbal score makes me want to retake it. I've been getting 11-12 on the practice tests and I know I messed up during the actual test. So I guess my question is... is it worth it to retake it (especially when I'm really happy about the other two scores), should I then wait a year, and am I still going to be a competitive for UC's and other mid/top programs.
Looking at the MSAR an 8 falls on the borderline of the 10th percentile of most schools so that doesn't seem too generous. I have a 3.8 and the rest of my application is pretty standard.
