Hi everyone,
I just got my score back from the Sep 11th MCAT (retake.) I improved from a 21 (7PS, 7V, 7BS) to a 27 (8PS,10V,9BS). My GPA is a 3.6 & I'm a FL resident. My application was verified in June, and I've only submitted 2 secondaries for DO school and 1 for MD, should I bother sending the rest/ adding more schools? It's already October and I know of many people that have already had interviews, am I too late to add more schools?

Thank you to anyone with advice, I really appreciate it!

It's getting kind of late in the cycle. With a 27, I'd only send in secondaries to your in state MD schools that are around your LizzyM score. You should still be okay to send in secondaries to DO schools.

Thank you so much, that's great advice. I had already submitted primaries to 7 DO schools, do you think it would be a good idea to add a few more schools, or is it too late in the cycle?

It's definitely not too late to add a few more applications to some DO schools.
