Talk about retaking MCAT in secondary essay?

[Wolfpack93]

Ok this is probably a dumb question but I was wondering if retaking the MCAT is something that you should talk about in questions that ask what you have done since graduation? I mean obviously it won't be the only thing I talk about but it did take up like 2 months of my time where I was only working part time to study. Should I include this or just talk about clinically related things I've done since graduating?

Studying for the MCAT is a significant use of your time during those months and keeps you from doing some other stuff. I think it would be worth a sentence or two (or just a mention) just to put all of your activities into perspective.

Cool, that's what I was planning on doing. Thanks for the feedback!
