got my MCAT's back, and did really low.
5 on V, 9 on P, and 7 B, and Q writing, the verbal section, well, i'm not a native speaker, but I guess, I can write a little after all. Anyhow. I'm really nervous, I feel like, I can get into any school. In terms of GPA, I have 3.9 from one of the really really hard CA schools (not that the level of hardness matters). I am going to have two publications, and a Masters in Neuroscience, and I have volunteered for about 240 in a program, and also, i'm going to get a letter from a D.O that I have shadowed for one compelete summer. I did work as a Emergency Tech for a while, but anyhow, I don't know why I did so ****ty on my MCAT's, but what can I do. Please, in all honesty tell me if I have a chance with any school, and if I do name them, and let me know what I have to do.
Thanks a lot

I don't think that is necessarily such a low score for a non-native speaker. I think you may still have a shot.

You have a great chance at plenty of schools. DON'T ASSUME YOU WON'T GET IN! Imagine, if you don't even apply you won't know.

I'm at KCOM. The average MCAT was 24 for my class. Yes, you are lower than that, but not too bad.

See my other post about medschoolstats.com - they have all the average accepted MCAT and GPA numbers for MD and DO schools.
