Brief Profile:
Made this to keep track of the application cycle, and hopefully, if it works out for me as an inspiration for those of you who also have low GPA & average MCAT scores. I\\\'m going for as much anonymity as possible because I am deathly afraid of one of my \\\'gunner\\\' peers to find me out -_-

Summary of Application Experience
Submitted AMCAS on the 15th, and even though it just opened on the 5th, it is taking SO LONG. ...I thought I was taking everyone\\\'s advice and \\\'applying early\\\' but apparently early means on the first day?
ManyRustyIons took the old MCAT and scored a 31 which is in the 83th percentile of all old scores.
We converted this to a 511 on the updated scale which is in the 85th percentile of the updated MCAT. We also converted ManyRustyIons’s section scores as follows:
