Hi,
I'm brand new to this site as a friend told me that its a good place for some sound advice, "most of the time." So here are my concerns:
1) I'm taking the august mcat. I realize that people have already sent their secondaries by the time I get my scores. But is it like I am going up against Goliath, or more like solving the last organic question on your final, ie, you can do it, its just that you hurry up as the professor is about to pick up all the exams..?
2) I only have 2.5 years of summer research experience, in a significant laboratory setting, or I wouldn't be considering the md/phd pathway. Is this enough? Or is it like fighting goliath again? I signed for a research project this next year at school, but I heard most applicants have spent either at least a year out of school??
Anybody out there who applied late???
Thanks
