I was just told by a reliable resource that if you submitted your AMCAS app now with current MCAT scores and decided to take the April 2003 MCATs (on the off chance that you do not get admitted to any schools and have to reapply), getting a higher score in April will NOT affect your application status if you happen to be on a waitlist in June. Meaning, you CAN send in new LORs and other updates, but new MCAT scores will not be accepted by med schools to help you get in off the waitlist. The reason for this is that it is "unfair to other applicants."
I thought this was interesting, so if anyone was considering doing this, they should first find out the school's policy.
