Sometimes I hear people say that the verbal is the most important section in the MCAT because it says a lot about one's intellectual.
They say both science sections tell mostly how much you understand the materials. I don't completely agree with this above statement simply because that I see it also takes comprehension and integration to apply the basic knowledge.
Well, sometimes I also hear people say the MCAT score is a good indicator for how well one can do for the future Step I & II. However, do they mean the overall score or only the verbal section?
It may be obvious...the reason I ask this is... English is my second language and I did honestly try very hard to prepare for the MCAT. Both times I did not score well on the verbal section, although I did manage to get an overall fine score.
Repeat MCAT may not be a good idea since I already tried twice. Besides, the thought of retaking MCAT can give me a nightmare already… Yet, I only have one interview this past year, is it because my verbal score just won't cut it?
