Yea; I've been contemplating that, too. Plus, I'm applying through TMDSAS, and tech. can submit May 1st, but I go to school out of state & my school won't be sending out Committee Lettes until the end of June. I called TMDSAS and they said it would be okay. I have a friend who is an MS3 @ UTMB and she took it in early July. Granted, it was a little later in the cycle, but she scored better than most of her friends who took it at the end of may and had to retake it. In the end, I would just do what makes you feel comfortable and more prepared.
Yeah, the cost sucks. I wish I had decided this a week ago b/c it would have just been 65 dollars... there goes my Work study paycheck, hahaha.
If you think you could do better by pushing it back, do it. Better to have a higher score than have to retake it again.
I'm just hoping I do well the first time! GL w/ whatever you do & with the whole cycle process!
