So during the COVID ERA, I took the MCAT and dropped majorly from my FL avg (498-not sure what went so wrong) then I panicked signed up for the closest test date available from score release (1 month) and got a 506 last year in September. I retook the MCAT in August and got my score back and couldn't be happier that spending 8 months of grind has paid off. Now I am at a crossroad because I'm not sure how my multiple MCAT retakes would be viewed as. Will this hinder my app greatly? (Applying MD/DO)- just trying to get in somewhere lol im not picky but I would love to get into a MD school
Thanks
