I got a 37L on my MCAT. I was wondering if I should retake them because my writing sample score was so low. I have taken many english classes where I was praised by my professors on my writing abilities. I also was scoring in the 41-43 range on all the practice tests that I took so I doubt my score will go down.

How much will medical schools be looking at the WS score as opposed to VR (11) and the essays that I write in the applications?

I got a C- in organic chemistry 2. Will this meet prerequisites? The prerequisties usually say C or bettera and I was wondering if a C- would automatically get my application tossed.

In addition I got a 14 on the BS section of the MCATs, will that help mitigate my bad grade?

I did not get into medical school this admissions period. I just recieved a letter from a graduate school that offers a one year Masters in Medical Sciences. I was wondering if these types of programs are specifically feeder programs for the associated medical school or if they are worthwhile if that is not the medical school you want to attend.

The other half of my question is that I have a 3.5 and a 37 and I was wondering if feild experience in medicine would be more useful that classes. They say their program is for people who need an opportunity to show their academic skills and I don’t know if mine is borederline or fine.
