(perfunctory self-deprecatory statement goes here )
I am going to apply to med school this year, but I have not yet completed the last 2 of the necessary post-bacc, pre-med classes, which I am taking starting in August:
Ochem I and II
I am taking the August MCAT (computerized version). On my practise exams at Princeton Review I have done increasingly better, so I am hopeful (24, 27, 29).
(I would like a 30 or 31. I'm not a genius like some of you younger intellectual gymnasts.)
I have been blessed with some life experience (I am 40 years old) including the gift of being asked to co-author a new medical study to take place in China, based upon some research I have done in the area of enzymatic activity in relation to antioxidation and lipid hydroperoxides. Also for the last 10 years or so I have been a missionary and I work with an NGO which provides medical relief to very poor countries around the world.
So, my question is, (please hold on to your seats!) How long after I take the MCAT should I wait to submit my application?
Thank you in advance for your wisdom, insight and banana bread recipes.
