Hey All,

I am in a bit of an odd place in terms of timing to send secondaries, I have a 6 year old mcat that is more the acceptable in regards to number but is now out of date for most schools. I am taking the MCAT again on july 12th.

I sent my application in june 3rd and have already received multiple secondaries with a pending MCAT. I don't expect to greatly improve my MCAT score on my next test, I am only taking so that i can have an up to date score.

Should i wait till i have my MCAT score back to send in secondaries or send out my secondaries ASAP?

thanks!
 
Send them as soon as you get them then you are not overwhelmed with a huge stack of paperwork at the last minute. Usually they are essays anyway.
