Hello everyone. I just wanted to ask if it is possible for me to get acceptances to the programs I was considering based on my stats.
My overall GPA is a 3.3 and science GPA is a 3.2. I recently got my MCAT score back but because I freaked out i did not do as well as my avg practice tests (34). I got a 8 PS, 8 VR, 10 BS, N writing. I know my score is low so I was wondering if I should go ahead and apply early or retake mcat in January and then apply. I have good EC like research, emt, shadowing, and i manage a small business. I was considering the following programs. Georgetown, Temple, Columbia (institute of nutrition), Commonwealth, Boston MAMS, Loyola MAMS, Tufts, Harvard extension. I contacted some of the directors of the programs and asked what they thought of my low MCAT score but I was encouraged to apply. Would I have a better chance with a mcat retake or should i just apply early. Now this is a list i have so far but if you guys can recommend some others that would be great. So what do you guys think? Is it Possible?
