Can anybody knowledgeable on TMDSAS see my chances? Just got my MCAT today. Lowish gpa.

@kopfkino I think you can apply to all the Texas schools this year.
The only reason to delay would be if your homelife/extra stresses and duties make you feel that a break would help you enter the application year more calm and confident.
If you did decide to wait out a year, don't retake the MCAT but maybe take more upper division science classes if you can make that work.

That's reassuring you think I have a chance, thank you. Isn't my MCAT too low for my GPA? I know adcoms are pretty finicky about mental health stuff so I'm unsure how they'd perceive my circumstances.
