Long story short, just got my mcat back and I scored a 507. I was averaging a 512 on my practice exams and truly believe I was tested over some key weaknesses on my exam. Pretty upset about it all and confused on what I should do. I’m also a white male, below average SES, first gen college student.
cGPA: 3.31
sGPA: 3.19
Recently graduated with degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Due to my low gpa, I’ve been shooting for DO schools and my goal mcat was a 510 in hopes of relieving my bad gpa but that didn’t happen. I have decent ECs: former D2 athlete, 150 hours clinical volunteering, good LoRs although not one from a DO, and currently work full time in a chemical research lab for a large company and worked at a hospital (non healthcare) for a year while in college.
Do I still have a chance for DO this cycle? I’ve already submitted and been verified with 1 school. I am confident that I can score 512+ on the Mcat although I am out of time for this cycle and would prefer to not go through the studying again unless I need to. I appreciate all the advice I can get. Thanks!
