I took the MCAT beginning of 2015 and scored super low (like 30th percentile), but recently retook it and got a 520.
There were a lot of factors as to why I didn't do well before... I was working full time and didn't really study outside of a brief review a few weeks before hand, flew in from a business trip the day before and barely slept before the test, had a friend living on my sofa, hadn't taken any full length practice tests, etc. Basically, I was arrogant and ill prepared.
I've been told that schools average MCAT scores? But since there is a significant gap in time between mine, would that change anything? Would they still be averaged after the old test expires? Would taking the MCAT again to raise my average help?
