I don't know if taking a year off (and improving: MCAT score, GPA, EC's, and perhaps an additional LoR) will do me good or not.
-------------
MCAT: 9 (!!!!!), 11, 11 = 31P
sGPA: 3.68
cGPA: 3.79
Majors: Biochemistry and music
VA Resident
Clinical experience: just okay. just enough I hope. I have volunteering and some shadowing experiences.
Other EC: Tons of music hours. A couple of other clubs where I took leadership positions.
Research: 1 year experience so far. 1 publication expected by the end of summer. Perhaps 1 more next year, but that's a maybe.
Others: I'm helping developing a biochem lab course this summer.
LoR: Should be all good/great.
PS: From feedback I've seen, it's pretty good.
-------------
I just have a hard time swallowing the 9 in PS. I've never gotten that low of a score in practices, and having pride as a chem major, that 9 is rather unacceptable for me. And I really wanted to shoot for top-tier schools
