Hi SDN Community,
First time posting, but I could really use some insight from everyone here. To put it briefly, I have a fairly low GPA (sGPA: 3.5 ; cGPA: 3.62), which means if I want to have a decent shot at med school I needed to do well on the MCAT.
Sadly, that didn't happen for me. I scored a 28 on the first one (11/6/11), and I just got my score back today after my retake, which is a 29 (11/9/9). I feel very defeated at this point, and I was wondering how I should best move forward. A part of me feels like trying to take the new MCAT, but I am very nervous with a new test seeing how I barely approved on my second attempt. What do you guys suggest I do? I have been thinking about SMPs and DO schools based on my score, because I think I might have a chance, but at this point I just don't know.
Any constructive and honest criticism is highly appreciated!
Thank you!
