Multiple MCATs??

[DrIncredible]

I have taken 3 MCATs, going from a 22Q, to a 21R, to a 28T. However, my VR sections for my earlier two were a 7, and my VR for my last MCAT was a 6. I know this will hurt me significantly, but do schools consider that I received a 7 on my previous MCATs?

Some might, but I think the majority of schools will take the highest overall score. Someone else asked this question in another thread, and Goro (AdComm) said quit fussing and just apply with the 6 in VR. They might consider the 6 to be a fluke since the last two were 7s, but who knows? Just apply.

I posted a similar question earlier. I called some schools and they said that they do not have any minimums for each section but they gave the total composite MCAT score to be what determines eligibility for an interview. However, some schools (PCOM) stated that they like to see 8's all around...

IF you're native English language speaker, I'd worry as an AdCom member a little bit. I think the overall avgs are more of a concern for me....seem you had a 7/7/7 2x. However, overall, if it's a hurt, it's not a lethal one. I predict you'll get plenty of interviews.
