Hypothetical question..

[opee]

Hi fellas.....

Just a hypothetical question.....

say I take the MCAT 3 time = bad score each time ....

I take it again the 4th time ---> killer score

gpa---> o.k.

great other so-called extracurrecular stuff....

should I bother applying to an allo or steo school?

There are a lot of MD schools that just look at your latest MCAT scores. It would be nice if you could give them an explanation for why your score was so bad the first 3 times. I'm assuming ok GPA is 3.3+

Have you gotten the fourth killer MCAT scores? DO schools are always a better chance, but with a 3.3 and an awesome MCAT you are in great shape for MD schools. Like I said, most schools put the most emphasis on the last mcat you took.

If you can pull of a 27 or above, you have a good shot at a DO school. Anything less may be an uphill battle but it is worth a shot.
