Applying only to Barry U. I'm a newlywed, and my wife has a ton of opportunities in Miami that she wouldn't have elsewhere.
GPA: 3.4
sGPA: 3.19
MCAT: 21
When I got the score, I was disappointed. I wanted to retake, but I was offered a job as a physics teacher at a local private high school. I had to start preparations for the school year, and thought it unwise to take the test if I didn't feel I could adequately prepare. So, I left it alone and thought I'd revisit in the summer.
Now, as the summer approaches, I'm wondering- should I retake the new MCAT this summer before the application cycle? Is my teaching experience enough to counteract the less than spectacular score?
It's the new MCAT and I never took biochem. I don't want to do it, but if I need to... my thought is if I don't re-take, I don't want to be in a position during an interview to answer why I didn't retake. I'm certainly not happy or proud of the score (my best FL practice tests were 26-29), so if I keep the score I'm not sure how to sell it either.
Thanks all in advance.
