OP,
You are in a great situation, really. A 7-year MS/MD program at a good school, in a great city, is the Holy Grail.
A "high" score on the MCAT is only a part of your application; weak EC's and a lack of research do hurt your application. You probably will NOT earn merit money with what you currently have. And, if you opt out you take your chances like everyone else - meaning that you may end up somewhere that you like less than Miami.
The Miller School is well respected and Jackson Memorial is highly respected for 3rd year clerkships.
Dude. Take the 10k and run with it.
