HELP!!! Need advice

I originally signed up to retake my mcat on Aug 12th, but I have not started studying due to other priorities. I was going to postpone my mcat date to Sept but now all the slots are full and I cannot get a seat any other dates. Now I have 2 options...cancel mcat or write it after studying my ass off for a month.
I already started applying for this cycle and currently finished 5 out of 9 secondary applications.
I mentioned I will be retaking mcat in Sept (I said this even before I tried to change the date) in my application.
Just to recap, this is my stats; 3.35cgpa and 26Q (10ps, 10bs, 6vr).
This feels like last yr where I studied 2.5weeks for the mcat to get that low score and now I'm panicking again.
Does anyone have a really good 1month study plan? lol
Can I retake it and not mention it unless asked during my interviews if the scores are low? lol
This sucks since I wanted to study hard and make at least 35+ on the mcat. I decided that I will not work and devote 12hrs/day on mcat and do a full length test on 28th. If i get a score lower than 35, then I will cancel mcat (reason is I constantly scored 30+ on practice exams last yr but scored low on actual test). My last day to cancel is 29th. Let me know if this is a good idea.
Any helpful input on this matter will be greatly appreciated with lotza hugs and high fives 😀

Seriously, should I even rewrite my mcat? I mean it'll be nice to go to an interview with higher mcat score.....but then again, what if I score lower?

I wish I could give you some good advice, but here's some mediocre ones.

Your 26 MCAT is okay I think... but you might as well study your butt off this one month and take your current MCAT date. If it doesn't go well, DO schools will just look at your 26, which isn't THAT bad since the average is like 27 (someone correct me if I'm wrong on this).

And since it sounds like you're already rolling in the secondaries, you seem early. Therefore, I think you should study hard, take the MCAT, and as soon as your done finish those secondaries. If your MCAT comes back in September lower than 26, so be it. DO schools will only look at the 26. If it comes back higher, hurray!

Hopefully someone can either confirm what I said or give you better advice. Goodluck though man. This is a hard time for all of us but we'll pull through it one way or another!!! 😉
