Hey guys been a while since Ive been on here. Ive made post before but am finally in the position to sincerely think about applying. I have finished all of my pre reqs. And am scheduled to take the mcat on July 19th but I am definitely not ready. Got a 492 on my first AAMC Full Length. I know that taking it as planned on the 19th would be a big gamble and I probably wouldn't improve much if it all so I am thinking about doing it mid August to give me a extra month of prep. When looking at some of the breakdowns I hover around 50% right in everything which I assume means I need to review content again to brush up on the things that I am missing. I say this because most of the questions that I get wrong I know that I am going to get wrong because of a concept I am hazy on. I plan on applying to mostly D.O and I have heard that the cycle for that runs longer but assuming I test in august do well and get the scores back mid September do you guys think that is to late to start submitting to schools and I should just wait until next year or is September still a decent time for D.O applications. Im currently 30 yom, previous paramedic/ paramedic instructor, current Peds ICU nurse. Upward trend in grades from courses that were 10 years ago at this point, Valedictorian in paramedic class, and honor student graduated with honors in my Bac Degree in Nursing.
