so i just got my mcat score and got a 32(11 PS 10VR 11BS). I was thinking of retaking but some people have told me that it is a bad idea.

I wont have time to study over the semester due to a heavy course load so basically i can only study during winter break.

What do you guys think? is it worth retaking or should i just leave it?

Don't retake unless you have plenty of time to prepare and know that you will score higher. A balanced 32 is pretty good with your GPA, EC's, etc. Are you trying to go MD/PhD or something?

nope im not trying to do MD/PhD. so you think with a 3.75 overall GPA and 3.84 science gpa, I have a good chance?

Do some research. Check the sticky in WAMC. You have ~80% of an acceptance. My MCAT is the same as yours with slightly lower GPA and I'm confident that I'll gain acceptance this year. I'm in GA also, what school?
