some schools do not accept scores older than 2 yrs b4 matriculation?

considering you have your score from 2006, u can only apply for the 2008 class?!

if u r not accepted in that cycle, u have to take the mcat again?!
i believe that it lasts for 3 years. so if you took it in april of 2006, you'll probably want to apply by the summer of 2008 so your scores are valid by the time they look at it. If you took it in august of 2006, i would suspect that you apply in the summer of 2009 because your scores will still be valid by then for them to review in 2009 cycle? If you applied in the summer of 2009 with april scores, it would be invalid because it would cross the three year threshhold by the time they look at your scores when the amcas is released (in may). Hence i would assume
april 2006 scores= 2008 class. If you don't perhaps you could apply for a spring semester (im not sure if any schools do this), so that your scores are still valid upon review. if not, sounds like you'll need to take over again
