so, i got a took it in august allright didnt do too great--------still applying tho, confident ill atleast get interviews

but, should i go ahead and register for the JANUARY mcat? i mean the schools will know im registered wont they and they might wait on interview or acceptance until after i take it if they KNOW im gonna take it.........

cuz on the other hand, if i dont register or take it, i might get accepted right away anyways and not have to go through all of that

im just thinking, either registering for it could A-give me a better shot in the long run B-slow my application process if they decide to wait C-be unneccesary if they consider accepting me without it

so any opinions? advice? will it hurt or benefit me?
 
Do you have interviews scheduled?

If so then your scores were likely good enough.

If not then you may want to consider registering again.
 
stats please.

well im just going to send in my secondaries, first to CCOM tommorow, then others right after

so should i wait 3 weeks and see if i get any interviews? call the schools and keep getting updates? and if then nothing happens i should register to take it i guess and let them know, if i do get interviews, then hope that thats enough to put me over?

well like i always say...the only way to find out if it is worth applying is to APPLY.
I am not an ADCOM i have no clue what kind of person yu are or what is in your application.
All you have to loose is few hundred bucks which is nothing concidering this is about your future and what you really want to do in life.
There are ppl who get in with similiar stats to yours so you never know UNTIL you apply.
And you can always register for the MCAT last second.
If i were you i'd apply and see what happens. Worst case senario you will at least know from the ADCOM what you need to do to fix the problemand get in the next cycle.
Good luck
