Hi all, I am new on SDN but I have found lots of useful advice so here goes my first post. I recently submitted an amcas application this cycle with no luck (but I only applied to one school, my state school). I was wondering if it would help at all if I retook the mcat and scored above the 30, would I have a chance if nothing else in my application has changed? I guess I'm a little unclear about how much change med schools want in application from year to year, I have an above average gpa with somewhat of a downward trend, I had some problems my last three semesters of college. Should I enroll myself in a postbac program and retake the mcat and set myself back a year or two or just retake the mcat and hopefully score better and apply with everything else the same? Any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated.
