I plan on applying for the 2023 cycle this upcoming summer. I intended to apply this past cycle but I couldn’t get my MCAT practice scores up above 500 so I decided to wait another cycle (I’m non trad, URM). I met with two of my previous professors (who know me pretty well) to get LORS. They both said they know MDs and 1 admissions person to my state school and could introduce me to them if my past cycle didn’t pan out (which it didn’t but it was due to the MCAT). I think my ECs are pretty good and I have a good story. Would it be worth networking or should I just focus more on the MCAT instead? I don’t know how much networking will help in terms of getting me admitted if my MCAT isn’t great.
