Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knows anything about how admission looks at publications. I have about a 3.5 overall gpa, 3.4 science, and lots of research/clinical experiences, as well as strong recs (from profs at harvard med and yale med). I have yet to retake the mcat in a month and will be applying to med school this summer. if i fall below a 30 on mcat, will publications enhance my chances? By the time I apply, I will have 3 abstracts, and hopefully 5 publications (some are still in progress while others are under review). I am SECOND author on 2 abstracts and 2 publications, third on an abstract and a pub, and 4 on the other. Any answer will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
