Should I send my old MCAT score right now or wait till I retake the MCAT to send to AACOM?

My old score was very bad because I was sick. Is it better to wait and send both of my scores together or send my old one?

I am retaking the mcat on July 24.

Like the previous poster said, it depends on your first MCAT score. If it is good enough that you wont get "screened" out of a secondary (do DO schools do this?), then I would send it. If it's in the the teens or something like that, I would definitely wait. Your scores will be out in late August, and that is still pretty early for the Osteopathic cycle. Good Luck!

Well yes it was in the teens i got an 18.
I have been taking practice test and getting around 24-27.

So I guess it is better to wait.

Great practice scores. I also think it would be better to wait, but that's my opinion...
