In a deep hole! Some suggestions please

[O 2 B A Gooner]

So, I received my scores today. Unfortunately, my verbal was shiyt! I had taken the old MCAT once before and had a total of 23. My new scores from the newer MCAT are:
Physical Sciences-130
Biological Sciences-129
Verbal-124...yeah
Social Sciences-126
Total-509

Please shed some light on whether I stand a chance on tier 2/3 medical schools or not, or should I retake the satanic exam! I am an IL resident with 3.7 cGPA and 3.72 sGPA. English is clearly not my first language and I believe I am having trouble with verbal mainly because of that. I HAVE ALREADY applied as a URM due to my circumstances and history. I had 14 activities on my application, with a mix of diverse experiences with a strong commitment and a few awards. Let me know if you need more information to judge my chances. Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers~!

Try reading some thoughts on this thread. One person said something along the lines of you'll be okay at some school should you be able to explain it the adcoms why your verbal score specifically was so low (which for you is english second language.)

Keep in mind though that this thread was from 2002
