Summary of Application Experience
I took the August MCAT, but I didn't find that to be much of a disadvantage (though, I did apply to several non-rolling schools). If you have a clear vision of why you want to be a doctor and have honestly demonstrated it through your extracurriculars (that you're passionate about) and essays, then nothing should stand in your way of going to medical school! :)
