I took the old one and got a 26. I'm going for DO schools and didn't get in this cycle but some of the feedback from the schools I interviewed at was that was my MCAT was low. I'm thinking about retaking it in the new format but realistically the only time I would have to start studying is late May...and I would probably end up taking it mid-late August.

Not sure what to expect in terms of time it takes to study for the new one so I was wondering if you guys thought this would be enough time? I would probably only have volunteering and keep up my activities in the gym but other than that I would only study.
