I applied very early in June, was complete at most schools by September, and I've only had one interview so far (state school in CA). My MCAT isn't that great, and I don't know if I'll be getting anymore interviews this cycle since it's basically mid-January already.
I thought my one interview went well, and they had told us interview day that we would be notified of acceptances from mid-December until May. Well, having that long of a period to just wait is a little stressful because I'm not sure if I should start thinking about studying for the MCAT again. Assuming I do decide to retake, I'd have to take the test by May to get scores by June for reapplication. That would mean that I would need to start studying soon!
Between the ambiguity of acceptance to my state school and the possible need to retake the MCAT, I'm kind of in a rut as to what to do now. Do I wait a little longer? What if I end up getting in this cycle and the stress of an MCAT retake isn't even necessary?
