I Took the MCAT at the end of May and applying this cycle to MD and DO. Say I get rejected this cycle and every cycle after. How many more cycles will I have before my MCAT expires for both DO and MD? I am currently raising my GPA and it might take a year. Thank you.

The MCAT is generally valid for 3 years, meaning the 13-14 cycle would be the last possible with your current score. However some schools only count scores as old as two years so it would be best to check this out on a school-by-school basis.

It depends on the school. For Texas Tech HSC, the best MCAT score in the past 5 years will be considered.
