This question is probably the most redundant. But lads please help me out. I understand that this forum is well informed to give you good advice. This April '04 MCAT has made it the 4th time I am taking this MCAT. I am from Cameron originally. English is my second language. I just don't seem to excel in standardized test. These are the times I took the MCAT and scores attained.

My Gpa is ~3.55. Please what should I do. I know I might be a subject of ridicule but please whoever has any concern should please tell me if I have any chance at all or should I give up medicine entirely. I know if I do I don't see myself happy. Please I beg you guys to please give me an honest advice because I am totally perplexed. Thanks and God bless.

What are average scores for Caribbean medical schools? I've heard these are good schools and maybe you should consider that route.
Good luck!

How are you studying? Although the MCAT is a standardized test, it can be studied for to a certain extent. I did poorly the first time, but with studying (maybe I should say "proper studying") I improved.

Yes, how are you studying? I knew people who studied all day (like a full-time job and then some) who raised their scores significantly. I was quite a slacker and only studied like at the last month a few hours, and that's why I didn't do the greatest myself. I think it's definitely possible that you could take it and improve, however, something definitely has to change (i.e. studying wise).

Good luck. 🙂
