Got my score back today from my 6/20 MCAT and I made a 497. I left the test thinking it sucked, but did NOT expect to make that low of a score! My FLs were 505-508 consistently prior to taking the exam. I am already scheduled to re-take August 29th, but I have applied this cycle. I am non-trad and not wanting to re-apply next year. My GPA and app is very strong and was planning to supplement that with a good MCAT but now I am not sure where to go next!
Do I go ahead and update my apps to send my 497 score and show that I am retaking August? Or do I wait until my score releases from my August test and then submit them both? Is August too late for this cycle? That would mean my new score would be submitted mid september so I could ideally interview oct/nov? I don't want schools to dismiss my app without knowing I am retaking and will get a higher score second time around! Any advice appreciated greatly!
