Should I retake my MCAT?

[hopefulblackpremed]

So I ended up getting a 509 while my average for my fl was 507. I was happy and sad, happy that I got higher than my fl average but disappointed with cars. I average 125-126 on cars but got a 124 on the real deal. Also, I scored below a 510. how much of a difference is a 509 vs 510? I looked at the matriculant data and figured out that a 506-509 vs 510-513 increases your acceptances by 14% which is massive. So what would you advice me SDN? retake or just go for it. I desire MD but will apply D.O as backup ofc.

Thanks for all the help so far!

I think I just posted their announcements for SNMA/MAPS scholarships. It's a small amount, but I wanted to make sure you saw them.

thank-you. Do you honestly think I still have a shot at MD with my below average stats. I was reading the black enrollment trend this year and it had me worried, it had an incredible drop, and I am just worried that with my 124 cars, I'm screened out and a mcat score below 510 would just make my application dead on arrival. I am really planning on improving my hours which I've done so far such as non clinical but will definitely get it above 150+ by the...
