Don't. Save your money. Save your time. They do not accept anyone with an mcat section under an 8, regardless of you situation. Some open-minded institution they are. 😡 👎

do they take the latest mcat only or look at both?

so if u got above 7 the 1st test and 7 the 2nd test on a section, they would say no?

what if u got 30+?

Does Jefferson send secondaries to everyone?

Here is the thing:

The admissions director e-mailed me and told me that they do not accept applicants with an mcat section lower than an 8 (sorry, not 7 as was written in the title of my original post). i'm pretty sure if you took it more than once and scored an 8 or better on that low section they'd take it, but lower than an 8 = no interview. i think it sucks that they didn't hear me out before canning me. 👎

Did you email first? Or was this an out-of-the-blue email?

1. I am/was in their pool this year

2. I e-mailed the director, she replied.

That sucks. Hopefully everyone in the adcom will be on crack when they review my application (7 in PS). One can only hope.

That sucks! I think they should post that on their web or somewhere people can see.
