I've been reading threads on SMPs and MCAT retakes but I feel that both my GPA and MCAT score are borderline and I'm having a really difficult time deciding how to improve my application.
I have a 32P and a 3.58 cumulative GPA (3.51 BCMP).
I've been planning to just retake the MCAT because my practice scores were all in the 35-38 range and I feel like I froze on test day. However I have already used up all of the practice exams and at this point I'm not sure I could raise my score. I have been considering an SMP because I feel like my GPA is detrimental to my application.
I've heard that I will probably get in somewhere if I apply early and broadly, but I really want to go to school in either DC or NY and I'm trying to figure out which of the above options could improve my chances there.
