Hello! I've been having a really tough application cycle! And would appreciate any thoughts/advice/motivation.
Here are my stats:
GPA: 3.65
Science GPA: 3.55
This is where the trouble starts! MCAT (Aug 2014): 24 (7 PS, 8 VR, 9 BS) and MCAT (Oct 2014): 26 (11 PS, 7 VR, 8 BS) I really thought that my first score was due to an eye issue that I have (I tried to apply for a larger font but was not granted) so I let many schools know about this and then YIKES! My score didn't improve!
I had a combo of pretty strong extra curricular recs (clinical volunteering as well as research) but some vague and general academic recs/committee letter.
I applied to 30+ schools, however most of them were M1 and I sent in my secondaries very very late (mid-October). I only got an interview at St. Georges in Grenada and I am waitlisted.
I am planning on taking the MCAT one more time this September but I am having a lot of issues getting over the slump that this year put me in! I'm terrified of not succeeding in my next MCAT and I become a little paralyzed! I would appreciate any and all advice! Thanks!
