So I am reapplicant applying with 30 MCAT (weak point was PS 8) 3.75 overall GPA, 3.85 sGPA, clinical experience as EMT, ED technician, three publications, 4th pending, major poster presentation coming up at an american academy of X medicine, leadership and volunteer experience.
My question is, I want to retake the MCAT. I am signed up to take it 8/21 (super late) but I have already submitted my app for verification just adding 1 school I've never applied to. I did not disclose that I am taking the 8/21 mcat on my app... If I do not get off any of my wait lists and have to fully reapply... Am I obligated to disclose my new MCAT date or can I keep it off the app so that the new schools I apply to look at my app immediately, but then I can write a letter of update to the old schools (well and the new schools) I previously applied to with new score? Or are they going to know I'm signed up regardless?
EDIT: new schools are lower tier that would be okay with the 30
EDIT 2: also do not want to disclose taking the MCAT, in case I void the score if I am not prepared, which might be likely considering how difficult it is studying again after you thought you were done with this forever last may
