I am active in the 2020 cycle and am waitlisted at a few programs and have not received any acceptances. Therefore I was planning to reapply during the 2021 cycle.
I was going to retake the MCAT in April then it was cancelled and moved to May. Then the May dates were cancelled and now my test date is September 30th.
I have to retake the MCAT if I am going to reapply because that is the weakest part of my application.
Should I apply this summer or just wait? I am leaning towards waiting until the 2022 cycle because I don't want to apply with my old score again and not have a new score to report until late Fall.
Does anyone know if MD/PhD programs are going to allow later dates to allow scores? As a re-applicant I feel like having a new and better score up front is essential because I don't want to miss out on early interview invitations.
Any advice?
