I am in massive need of advice! I am a Biomedical Science and Chemistry major, 3.86 GPA, honors student, peer mentor, and vice president of a large social honors organization. I had a research internship last summer working 50 hours a week for ten weeks in community-based research in public health and have spent the last six weeks in Peru working full time in a medical clinic and on a medical campaign provided check-ups to underprivileged children, gaining a TON of good clinical experience. BUT, I took the MCAT in June and got very sick before I took it, only scored a 25Q (6PS, 11VR, 8BS). The only time available to retake the MCAT is in September, which means they would not be released until October. My application is ready to be submitted now. Should I retake the MCAT and submit my application in October or should I submit it which the score I have? I am a New Mexico resident but go to school in Arizona so I am looking at both MD and DO schools mostly in those two areas. Any advice would be greatly appreciated🙂
