MCAT date and SMP

My first and last MCAT date was August 2006 (the last paper and pen one, if anyone here remembers or took it), and I think I did reasonably okay on it with a 32P. But... I'm worried that the date is too old if I want to apply for an SMP program in January 2011 (ie try to matriculate fall of 2011). Does anyone know if SMP programs require MCAT dates to be within the last X-number of years? 'Cause I know med schools usually ask that MCATs be within 3 years-ish.

Thanks for any answers 🙂

You're going to have to retake it anyway for med school. The only SMPs that might take it will be the ones who let you substitute GRE for MCAT? Go look it up at the school website. GL
