LOW MCAT

Hi, I was planning on applying this cycle, and I have already submitted my primary applications for AACOMAS and AAMCAS. I also submitted and rewrote some of my secondaries. However, upon getting my score back, I got a 492. MY GPA is 3.8 and scGPA is 3.7. What happens to my primary/secondary applications, and what can I do now? Do I still go ahead and apply to DO schools since most of my secondaries have been submitted?

What can I do differently to do better on the MCAT? Should I take a course for content review and just do ANKI and more practice?

I cannot recommend that you go forward with this score (it's the 21st percentile), even if everything else is strong.
You can get MCAT help here: Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT)
Do not re-take the MCAT until you are confident of a score c/w success.

Passive withdraw your applications (meaning don't spend any more money on secondaries). If you submitted secondaries already, you applied. Hope for a surprise but prepare for a better MCAT result.
