I am a Junior at the University of California, Irvine.
I have a 3.48 overall and a 3.42 BCPM
My MCAT score was a 27Q
I have a lot of research and am published in 2 papers.
I am planning on re-taking my MCAT sometime mid-September, and I was wondering whether it'd be best if I applied this year, or waited another year.
My older bro (a neurosurgeon who went to Hopkins for med school), says that if I apply next year, my chances will go way down unless I am doing something very significant during my year off (ie a Masters program). Is this true? What are my chances of getting into med school (or DO school) if I apply this cycle?
Please help! I need your advice!
