I'm applying to medical school this cycle to both MD and DO schools. My chances at the MD schools are extremely low due to a poor MCAT verbal reasoning score. This semester, I was planning on taking a little "break" and only take 13 credit hours. However, now I'm thinking this might not be a good idea. I could add one more science, allowing me to take four upper level challenging courses. If I were to do well this semester (4.0), do you think this will help me much with MD acceptance chances? Or is it not worth the stress/trouble?
BTW-I've taken a challenging course load like this before and got a 4.0, so I know that it is possible for me. It's just extremely stressful.
