I was wondering if reapplying in the '09 cycle would even be worth it. I was rejected from every school I applied to this past cycle and I have not done anything worthwhile this year, because I thought I would go to SGU, but have decided to reapply. My stats are as follows (approximately): overall gpa 3.4, Science 3.32, MCAT 29 first time and 24 second time.
SO my questions are:
1) Will an SMP help me at all?
2) Will retaking the MCAT in July and applying this cycle be worth it if i can get above a 30?
3) Since I don't have any new medical experience/ research, do you think I should wait one more year (reapply for 2010)?
I have looked into DO, and am considering it, but don't want to apply unless my heart is fully into it.
Thank you for the help!!
