Yes, but the last MCAT for this testing year is 9/28. Very few, if any, MD schools will accept one after that, although someone posted that Penn will accept one from next January. Schools might have deadlines after that, but there will be no more tests until January. For all intents and purposes, if you don't have a score by 10/13 (the final release date this year), you are probably done for this cycle, other than maybe DO, Stanford, and schools like Penn.

Some schools are going back to a year earlier than their usual too...
