If you think you can increase your score to 515, it would be worthwhile to retake!

I recommend the following:
Creighton
Drexel
Georgetown
GWU
Jefferson
Loma Linda (only if you are SDA or a very devout Christian)
MCW
NEOMED
Netter
Loyola
Nova MD
Oakland-B
Rosy Franklin
EVMS
SLU
Albany
Rush
Temple
Tulane

VCU
U CO
U ILL (watch tuition!)
U VM
Uniformed Services University/Hebert (just be aware of the military service commitment)
Wayne State

Any DO program. You need DO schools on your list with your MCAT score.
I can't recommend LMU, SOMA, RVU, BCOM, ICOM and LUCOM, for different reasons. Avoid those new schools that haven't graduated a class yet, if at all possible.

If you think you can increase your score to 515, it would be worthwhile to retake!

if I were to retake would they average the two scores? Say I got the 515 and then now my new score is 512.5, does my school list change/do my odds of getting acceptance change? Could I increase my odds just as much by doing something to the rest of my app?

I feel confident I could increase the score. 515 maybe, 512 definitely. Just want to make sure I know how much it will help me before I do.

If your goal is rural medicine, a 510 should be okay at many schools, so it's a question how else you show mission fit. I would not retake unless there is a strategic need to do that.
