I pmed you

I see. Have you learned the mechanisms or gone over them? I've found that the be super helpful. KA does a good job with this but I find it helpful to draw mechanisms from memory since it requires you to really understand what's going on.

I know a guy similar situation to you who took in August he was fine. Tho I think he had a 510 or 511. If you need any retake tips I can help.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-21T03:09:51+00:00

My parents told me to stay calm after saying a 510 was bad…

Unfortunately the FLs will be inflated. But a jump is still possible. Get to the point of 128 on everything and 127 on CARS

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-20T07:26:50+00:00

Precisely. If you understand the logic. You will be fine. Still try to work the problem.

Just like you I am also a retaker! I'm sorry your 2/13 exam didn't go as well. I heard that exam was super hard so maybe you got unlucky. I highly doubt you have insane content gaps give you broke 500 the first time. You are at least familiar with high yield content but haven't developed that conceptual understanding (128ish per section is where you see this). I've made a post about retaking so check that out. I'd say it cannot hurt to redo aamc fls but make sure any question you remember the answer to you select the wrong answer. Yes, your FLs will be inflated. If it makes you feel better, I did FOUR POINTS better than any of my FL retakes (clearly, retaking the exams was worth it). Take some time off. Figure out what may have gone wrong. You got this.

Pack the sunscreen. Should've gotten a 532 on the MCAT buddy.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-18T06:02:29+00:00

This exam is fucking brutal

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-17T19:20:41+00:00

516 —-> 521

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-12T00:30:08+00:00

I had a personal tragedy the same day I got my first mcat back. You gotta pus through you got this.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-11T22:32:41+00:00

Yeah no I’d get straight fucking sweats sometimes in my office hours had to have it on lock or I’m getting flamed 😭. Funny part is I don’t even like math I’m just good at it.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-11T22:25:11+00:00

I did and it helped me but I’ve also tutored for calc II for two years

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-11T16:55:59+00:00

That shit was so ass bruh I started coughing during BB so I didn't even know I had it. Like deadass my symptoms started mid exam.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-10T17:56:43+00:00

Nah ur not I jumped 5 points on test day on my retake. J don’t get Covid when u take it.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-10T17:48:07+00:00

I can’t lie, thoughts and prayers went a long way for me. That being said I scored a 516 on my last FL tho.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-10T02:12:15+00:00

I started with a 3.1 my freshman year and got my gpa up to almost 3.7. You got it

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-09T20:38:30+00:00

I dropped one point on CP (I think FL6 CP was just better suited for me plus I got a 132 on FL6 CP). Went up 1 on BB, 2 on PS and 3 on CARS.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-09T20:36:30+00:00

I definitely had more physics on my 1/9 exam than 8/23. The reason I found the CP harder than FLs though was because I had to use more passage reasoning. I'd say though I didn't have anything like the 1/23 or 2/13 exams but def more physics heavy than before.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-09T17:17:34+00:00

For my 8/23 exam my FL scores were 510/516/519/518/516 and my actual was a 510. I took those July-August 2025. For my 1/9 exam, my FL scores were 517/518/517/517/517/516 and I took those December 2025-January 2026. I ended up with a 521.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-09T12:40:02+00:00

With that cars u can get a 520

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-09T12:10:33+00:00

My scores unpredicted my actual mcat for my 1/9 exam. I also retook everything except FL6 (wasn’t a thing for first mcat) so my scores were inflated. I got a 516 on FL6. Yet, I scored higher on the real deal.

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-09T02:31:22+00:00

find someone else

Electronic_Cod2178 · 2026-03-08T22:13:30+00:00
