I want to curse the sun that came pouring in on me on bio, but that would be just lame, wouldn't it?

Woooooo hhoooooooo!!!!!

Congrats to all, to those who retake, you know you've got the motivation to crank it up a notch if you're on this site. Goodnight, God bless, and the whole 9 yards!!!!!!

Oh yeah, O on writing. Didn't do so hot there.
 
We have all completed one important step of many difficult ones on our way to doctordom. Rather than congratulate everyone individually, I would like to preemptively say:

😀 😛 😀 CONGRATS ALL! 😀 😛 😀

And best wishes going forward with applications or retakes.

I posted this in the other thread but guess I'll post it here too. I didnt really study much for the MCAT so I guess I am content with these scores. I need some advice on whether I should retake in August or try to apply with this score. I am a FL resident and my GPA is 3.86. I have good LOR's and decent EC's. I'm taking some summer classes now which would take away from studying time. Please help me....
 
Now that I have seen these great scores, it gives my motivation to hit the books. August will be my first time, but I only have 8 weeks to go. Wish me luck.
 
Ugh 🙁.... I was hoping for something more consistent. I got a 7P, 12B, 11V. Man!! 🙁. I was so nervous on the Physical sciences test.

I would not retake. I had the same score as you! Anyway, especially with you GPA(I did not have the same gpa as you 🙁 ) You should be fine. Don't let the fact that almost everybody here got above 33 get you down, it is not indicative of the population. Your above aberage for test takers and around the average for matriculants at MD schools, and well above average for DO schools. Your fine!

Close to the scores a girlfriend of mine got... 7P, 11B, 13V (comp 31). She was accepted to two schools and turned down an interview or two.

That is good news, thanks! 🙂 Esp. b/c I am definitely not retaking because I just can't go through it again. I took it 7 years ago and got a more consistent score (11P that time) so hopefully they'll take it into account!
