Hey guys I just wanted to get your opinions on a retake question.
As the title says I scored a 28Q on the 04/28/12 MCAT and have a 3.55CGPA and ~3.7SGPA
As far as EC's go I have worked two jobs throughout college and paid for ~75% of my OOS tuition. One job as an environmental geologist assistant for 4 years, summer employment 40hr/wk. My more recent job is working as a certified pharmacy tech for the past two years and I still currently work, both during the semester and summer ~20hr/wk.
Most Sundays I also serve as co-coordinator for a group that packages and distributes lunches to the homeless downtown.
I have shadowed ENT clinic, Hospitalist, ICU, Endoscopy, ED, Radiology, Cath lab, Operating room, and Respiratory care.
In addition I have traveled to Nicaragua, Panama, and Jamaica on med relief trips and am going to Haiti in Dec. Along with some less notable ECs
The question I have is my AMCAS application is already submitted and verified and was wondering if it would be worth it to retake the MCAT July 26th or to just stick with the early application. I averaged about a 33 on the practice MCATs. (unfortunately I didn't seem to be as lucky on the real one)
Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.
