According to mdapplicants.com, there are applicants who do get into med school with low MCATS. If you are one of these people now in school, could you tell me what did during the application year to make yourself to make it happen? Call the admissions office frequently? Write update letters? Visit the school? Have more letters of rec sent on your behalf? Meet with an admissions coordinator of the school applying to? etc? Any ideas?
I'm currently applying and I got a 24R. I know that I should retake the MCAT again but this was my second time and I really don't think I will improve. I dont' have test anxiety--- I just don't take that particular test very well. Everything else about my application is very good, high science GPA from a top university, 300 hours in clinics and hospitals for the indigent, strong LORs, did a postbacc, had a very unique career for a few years and want to practice exclusively with underserved patients in the Latino population.
Thank you for any tips!
