<p>Hey! So I have two really quick questions</p>

<p>I just reapplied yesterday for medical schools and I already got a secondary from GWU. I took my MCATs on july 6th but I already submitted my primary application without my MCAT scores. My questions are</p>

<p>1) Should I wait to submit my secondaries until after I receive my MCAT scores or should I submit my secondaries as soon as I get them?</p>

<p>2) I am 99% the only reason why I didn't get accepted last year was because of my MCATs (11P, 6V, 11BS) the verbal killed me. When I retook the MCAT on July 16th, I felt MUCH better. Anyway, my question is should I write completely different essays for the essays on the secondary applications? I mean things like "What is your greatest achievement" and "Why do you want to enter our medical school" aren't really things that I felt have really changed over the last year.</p>

<p>Yes…your verbal killed you. I don’t know what the rule of thumb is, but I would have thought that you shouldn’t have applied last year.</p>

<p>What were the results of your apps? How many schools did you apply to? </p>

<p>Which schools did you apply to?</p>

<p>What is your home state?</p>

<p>What is your science and cum GPA?</p>

<p>Any interviews?</p>

<p>My home state is NY. My science and cum GPA are both 4.0. I actually got an interview at NYU and SUNY Buffalo. I indicated on my primary that I am retaken the MCATs on june 16th. I’m just wondering if I should send out my secondary applications before or after I get my second MCAT scores.</p>

<p>Also I’ve decided to re-write my essays</p>
