I'm CANADIAN, would i need to release my MCAT scores to USMD/DO if I rewrite?

Hey everyone!

So my current MCAT is a 509 (with a 124 in CARS) which is reallyyyyy bad since I'm Canadian. I think my overall score is fine for a few USMD and most USDO.

If I submit my USMD and USDO applications in June/July, and rewrite the MCAT in August/September, would I HAVE TO release the latest MCAT score to the american schools? I'm scared that I might do worse than a 509 and I don't want american schools seeing it LOL

Thank you soo much in advance, really appreciate it!

Yes, I'm afraid so. They are immediately uploaded through AMCAS.

Sad to say, but international students need to be superstars. Your score will not be competitive for MD, but fine for DO.

I know a Canadian that got into Maryland with a 3.8/507 so it is possible with subpar stats. I guess it’s call holistic admissions for a reason.
