MCAT Jan 2015 No writing score.
Reflections/Advice I would pass on: 1.) Make sure to apply early! 2.) Write all your secondaries as early as you can. 3.) If you apply to out of state schools, make sure to check interview and acceptance stats for OOS students. Some schools have very low rates (for example state schools may give preference to in state residents). 4.) Call the admissions office!! If you haven't heard anything for a while (4-6 months) it never hurts to call the school and check in on your app status. Some schools even take note of you reaching out as you showing specific interest in their program. 5.) That being said in #4, patience is also going to be key. Each cycle will take a long time!
