So I just received my scores back from my second MCAT and I received the same score as last time..
The first time I essentially did all practice tests over the summer, while I was working and taking classes. and got a 27 (9V/8P/10B). The second time I was studying while taking a full course load and only focused on the material, instead of practice exams. I was trying to squeeze in the exam again before the new MCAT came out and took the test knowing I needed more time to study. . This time I got 10V/10P/7B. My GPA will be around a 3.65 by the time I graduate with significant extracurriculars, leadership positions, and shadowing.
While I know I'm in the range for DO schools I also don't want to limit my options by not applying to MD. I'd really appreciate any opinions on retaking the exam/applying to MD with these scores!
