I studied pretty damn hard for this exam in august and i just took a practice where i dropped to a 20. i am planning on taking it again in january and im really scared my sciences will drop, and the verbal will probably go up 2-3 points so ill be at most a 31. my verbal WILL NOT be able to go past 9. should i retake it?
on a semi related note, if i were to apply for medical school this coming summer extremely early (i have an excel spreadsheet of all the schools i plan on applying with acceptance stats i have researched), ive written my primary essay, ive gone on SDN and written out most of the secondary essays, got my letters of rec on hand among other volunteer experiences and job shadowing. if i were to pick my GPA up by the time they open up primary applications, how likely would i get in if i were to submit my primary and secondaries on the FIRST day it opens or when i get secondary invites? i plan on applying to 30+ schools all over the US and im working to save up money for these applications, i couldnt care less where i go because i just want my MD. im looking at the lowest mcat and gpa accepted MD schools. what will be the odds of me getting in?
