Summary of Application Experience
Interviewed at one school so far but considering sitting out a year and retaking the MCAT for a better score (took it in mid-April amongst finals, etc.). I think I would do better dedicating more time to studying for the test in the summer. Should I withdraw my application to the schools that I applied to (middle of the road medical schools) with the hope of scoring better on the MCAT and subsequently applying to more prestigious schools?
