Well, i figured id finally post one for myself. Im trying to decide if i want to retake my MCAT in January. Im looking to apply early next summer. I recently got my MCAT scores back this months and received PS:9 VR:10 BS:8 for a 27.
My GPA is 3.45 and im a Bio major. I have been working as a Firefighter/EMT on an ALS rig for 3 years and i have also worked in an ER as a tech for 3 years. When i apply i will have had 2 years of research experience with one poster and hopefully my name on a pub. Ive shadowed an Anesthesiologist for ~60 hours an Emergency physician for ~40 hours and a DO who specializes in OMM( actually head of OMM department).
In fact, all of my shadowing experiences have been with DO's. I had a really positive experience sitting in on OMM lab last year and thats all i want to pursue. Being from/living in the chicagoland area, my number 1 school is CCOM. Besides that, i would love DMU, NSU( i lived in Miami for 8 years), and then really anything else.
Should i retake my MCAT, what are my chances for CCOM? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
