I just received my PSCOM secondary. Since I had a low MCAT in April, I want to make reference to the fact that I retook in August (and I expect a higher score). Should I discuss this in the essay of "Why I should be chosen as an osteopathic doctor"? How should I handle that or should I just not worry too much about that?

I'm also in the process of filing out their secondary. No, I would not mention anything about retaking the MCAT. You designated that you would be retaking on the primary, right? You will have you scores released to them in October.

I would talk about only your qualities and experiences etc. on the app.
