I am considering taking the MCAT again, but I am not sure if I should. My professors and advisers are giving me mixed answers. I want to only apply to MD schools. I could apply to DO, but I heard you need a recommendation letter from a DO to apply. I have not shadowed a DO or worked with one before.
Chem/Phys: 125 (55%)
CARS: 124 (44%)
Bio/BioChem:128 (87%)

Should I take the MCAT again? I do not want to go to a Caribbean school. What med schools should I apply to? I am thinking of low tiered medical schools and those within my state (PA). What do you think are my chances?
