Medical School policy on retake

[dreambig2night]

What are osteopathic schools policies on MCAT scores if you retook it?
Do they average the two scores(or three) or do they take the best scores among the two(or three) scores or do they take the most recent score?

thanks!

Some take the best of each section and some just take your latest scores. It just depends on the school.

most take the best total score, but some take the best of each section

there may be a few that take the latest grade only

call the school for more info

I think I will call schools individually to find out, unless SDN members have any information specific to a particular DO school on this matter.

I finally figured today is Sunday!!!
...and since William's going for it, anyone knows PCOM's, WVCOM's, VCOM's, CCOM's, UMDNJ-SOM's, and LECOM's policy on this?

thanks!

Have you checked the websites? I looked at one but couldn't find it; I may have looked in the wrong section, though.
