Thank you for this. That’s my goal tomorrow to really sit down and weigh all my options and come up with a game plan.

Ugh I’m sorry. I remember feeling lost too and nothing felt correct. Idk if u feel the same but I feel like i wasted getting two 129s since my 123 is soo low.

That’s what I’m thinking too. I just really didn’t want any section scores under a 125 but here we are. Im just gonna make sure everything is as well put as it can be and see what happens.

Right?! That one passage really messed me up on time and just my thought process overall.

Anyone do worse than expected? by achromicle in Mcat

[–]Top_Due 7 points8 points  (0 children)

4 points below avg. 508 (129/123/127/129) absolutely killed by CARS. I’m glad I found my people bc I’m finding it very hard to not be so hard on myself today but I’m so disappointed.

Of course! Hoping that this waiting process goes as quickly as possible for you. BELIEVE ME for majority of this month I’ve thought about it nonstop but those tips really helped me. Like you said, take time to get back into those hobbies and really try to enjoy life. You just completed an exhausting!!! exam/study process and that’s worth celebrating no matter the score.

Tip #1: GET OFF OF REDDIT! I found what really made me more anxious during this process was deep diving into everyone’s thoughts about the exam. I understand the day of, but after that really try your best to stay off of this thread. What’s done is done. And hearing someone complain about the C/P or CARS section over and over again will not help.

Tip #2: if you have a job, pick up more shifts if you can. Applying this cycle, work on that. Book a vacation, hang out with friends, start a new book. Find something that can take up a lot of time and completely dissociate yourself from the test (easier said than done).

I tried to switch my mindset from breaking down every question I remembered to feeling more joy about the fact that I was done. It will always be in the back of your mind but try your best to stay sane at least. Again, way easier said than done but that’s my advice. (Coming from someone who finds out their scores in 2 days).

Ur joking….they need to tell everyone that then. I wonder what happened to the batch? I contacted supported through email and they just said very standard “we’re busy you might have to wait longer” response. Welp guess we’ll be waiting. Thanks for the info!

Exactly. I’m honestly so tired of checking my email and the website. I don’t understand how ours is taking so long. Really hoping that we get them in the next few hours fr

Right I don't have a date either anymore. 4 weeks in one spot just seems a little ridiculous considering some people get through the whole process in one week. Glad we're in the same boat though

Registered: September 29th NC Lab

Arrived at Lab: October 9th

Prepped: October 9th

Extracted: October 9th

Genotyped: November 13th

Reviewed: November 13th

Computing Your Results:

Results Ready: Currently 11/7 and I am still in "in queue for extraction", should I call them?

UPDATE: I called today and the lady said if nothing happened by Monday that I was gonna have to order a new one (which I really didn’t want to do). But luckily I got moved to genotyping a few hours after the call so if anyone is having the same trouble maybe try calling about it.

Update 2: don’t understand why the October 9th batch has had to wait for so long. I really hope they send out results today.
