92Carribean Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Hey everyone,I've posted here before about whether I should apply this year or to retake my MCAT.I've decided to take the new MCAT, but considering the timing I was only able to schedule a late date (September 12th).Now I know that for american medical schools that we should apply earlier for a better chance, but I was wondering if you guys think I should give it a try anyways.Stats:aamc gpa: 3.97Mcat: assuming atleast a 510Application date: october 1stEC's:worked at brigham and women's hospital in boston doing research (one paper and another possibly, none first author)shadowed an OR surgeon and a clinical anesthesiologist (just once each)started a non profit organization that donated clothes to local sheltersvolunteered 3 years at a soup kitchen started a website with a friend that has raised over $50,000 for children in south america and africacommunity outreach program in Cuzco, Peru for a monthworked a clinical research job for 4 months (in allergy research)Should I give it a chance this year? EDIT: forgot to mention that to take that 1 year research position in Boston, i've been out of school for as of 1 year.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotASerialKiller Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 No it's too late this year, they're hard on re-applicants just apply next year. Also careful getting advice on a projected MCAT score, because you're scored relative to other people it's extremely hard to accurately predict how you did.
