Hello!
Looking for some advice on my chances of getting into MD schools this cycle. I'm also applying DO but I think I should be ok for that. Stats are:
3.45 sGPA from undergrad (strong, strong upwards trend)
3.61 sGPA from UPenn post bac
28 MCAT (9 PS, 9 BS, and 10 VR) (meh....I got suppperrrr nervous on test day and let it get the best of me. ugh.)
300+ clinical volunteering hours, tons of non-clinical volunteering, two years of leadership, research experience (academic and clinical), a lot of ECs that were constant throughout college, great LORs, etc.
So I guess I have two questions:
1. Chances of getting in?
2. Should I retake the MCAT? I know it's too late to rely on a better MCAT score, of course, but if I told schools I was retaking it, would they like "put my application to the side" and wait to see how I did and then reconsider my for an interview (someone told me that yesterday, idk how plausible that is...).
Anyways, thanks everyone in advance!
