Hey all well, oh that sounds so negative, but here is the situation. I just opeaned my test scores from the last MCAT aug 04 and I made a 15. PS 6 bIO 3 Verb 6 writting L.

I am studying to take the MCAT in August and I am getting my study materials rounded up. I can't help but think that I have soo much improvement to work on especially in biology and that is my major (OMG) oH MY GOSH. I plan to use mostly exam krackers and some Kaplan to study. This is my second time taking the test and I only went up 3 points from the first time in college with out preparation.

The thing is I am feeling a little bit like I will not have enough time to study ( or maybe I am getting a little scared)already, and starting to think mabye I should kinda study until next April. But then I am thinking that is a whole year again that I will be waiting to take the test.

And I am also thinking of applying to some post back prorgrams or Medical schools. I would like for someone to correct me if I am wrong but my understanding of Post-back programs is that you have to apply to the med school and be turned down to be offered a position in a post -back program.

Now I know that a 15 is not a very competitive score(but that is what I made) and I want and will try to do better!!! but if I can get into a school with my 15, by applying now. And still taking the mcat in August( and hopefully doing better) I will probally find out results around the same time. So please tell me what you think abou the situation and let me know what your opinions are, thanks
