Summary of Application Experience
I'm applying to MD/PhD programs, but after taking the MCAT and getting a 28, I knew that wouldn't cut it for an MSTP program, so I hired a professional tutor and took it again Aug 28th. Still waiting on second score. I've applied to MD only programs as well.
Note: I've also applied to Central Michigan University's Med School and Western Michigan University's Med School, but those aren't put as an option on this site. (Western's first class will be 2014 and Central is only in their 3rd year I believe).
