ok, so i got waitlisted to two schools only two schools i have a chance at... supposedly they don't have ranking for their waitlist so if i do something maybe they'll take me off the list faster.. i'm thinking about taking the mcats april 16th which is three weeks away get my score in june and send it to them. or do nutrition research...i don't know which one...my gpa is 3.59 overall and like 3.55 SGPA and low mcat score 18-22 havn't strated hardcore studying yet or even good studying..cause of this interview running around, etc..

i want to go to med school this fall but then again i dont mind taking a year off if i have to cause then i can make some cash...


what if i take the mcats in three weeks and blow it..but what if i wait till august..and apply in june to schools.. how will they tell that i am taking the mcats in august....but it seems a little confusing..will they judge giving secondaries and interviews off of the first mcat score..

ANY SUGGESTIONS? what are the chances of getting of waitlists?????? i am stressed to the max..i'm signed up for the mcat for the 16th .but i can withdraw..damn so much money to waste through all this admissions process..

Don't take the MCAT in April if you aren't prepared for it. Take a practice one now and score it to see how you will do. The application in June has a place to notify the schools that you are taking the August MCAT.
