Hi everyone. I really hope any of you can offer some advice...I think my situation is a lil unique as far as Re-Applying goes.
I applied to MD schools in 2002. My april-Aug MCATS were 20/N & 21O. My GPA was a 3.17 @ the time, and although the schools didn't accept me, they said I just needed to raise my MCAT another 2 pts or so to be interviewed. But, i decided to go to a foreign medical school instead of waiting (fearing that i couldn't make up the extra points).
Now I'm in AUC in St. Maarten and have been here for 3 semesters. I had a health problem the 1st semester & had to start over, but am now an anatomy tutor. However, I am not happy with the school/curriculum/administration and have been thinking of re-applying to US-based schools. I incured alot of health problems just trying to get through the school. But, of course, I am weary of the MCAT. I am already in alot of debt just from the loans i had to take out to go to the school. So, as you can see, I'm in a bind.
What would you do if you were me? If i do take the MCAT again, what REALLY helps....i dont want to waste another 1000 on Kaplan and not get anywhere. I thank you for any advice in advance.
