Be honest please: I have a 3.93 GPA but a 25P MCAT should I even bother and send in my secondary? I got 10B 9P and 6V, I am not a native speaker.
 
You should definately submit your secondary. I have an interview there as a non-resident. I got a 6 in verbal and a 10 in the other 2 sections. I also have a 3.72 science GPA and a 3.70 all other. Best of luck. 😳

when did you submit your secondary and how long did you have to wait to get an interview? I submited my application in september and still have not heard from them.
 
wow that's awsome for you! But i feel like its a waste of 70 bucks. Would medical schools take someone with such a low mcat score as mine? I have a ton of extracurriculars, I work as a medical assistant so i dunno.

I completed my application in August and just received a letter in the mail last week. I actually thought it was a rejection because it was only one piece of paper. It is true, good things can come in small packages. 😳

Someone gave me great advice during this process: DO NOT BE CHEAP!!! I took that advice and applied to schools I thought I could never get in. However, I have thus far received 12 interviews including Mt. Sinai and Yale. With a 6 in verbal. . . who would have thought? You should apply to the schools you want to go to regardless of how much they cost. Put the expenses on credit cards. 😳
