Hi there, I'm hoping to get advice on if I have a realistic shot at MD this cycle. I've been agonizing over my 511 MCAT since taking it, as my full length average was 517. Decided not to retake, but regretting it out of fear. Afraid MCAT will leave my app DOA for many schools (I realize this...

Hi everyone! I was trying to narrow down my school list as I get ready to apply for this upcoming cycle. I would appreciate any input, as I think my school list might be too top-heavy and could some more balance. Also, I was considering applying for MD/PhD programs. I don't know if this makes...
