Summary of Application Experience
I know I have a pretty ambitious list of schools and many are long shots. However, I love these schools and think its worth a shot even if I'm just told no. I feel that my relatively low MCAT score is the biggest downside in my App. I should have retaken as I expected to score higher.
I took the MCAT in April but got a late start on my Apps because I was considering taking a year off before going to med school. I completed most of my applications at the end of September, early October.
