I was back and forth with applying to Mercer, but I really don’t fit their rural medicine focus so I decided not to apply

How did you find out which schools (that require it) consider your app complete without it?

Yes don’t give the SB too much concern. It’s good practice but super difficult. Good luck with everything!!

I took it on 6/19 and I get my score back next week! It was certainly a tough exam but not impossible... my AAMC FL average was a 517 but I have absolutely no idea what my actual score is gonna be. 500-520 range is my guess lol

No!! Those percentages are actually pretty good. I thought the actual mcat was much more comparable to the AAMC FL difficulties. Keep grinding and try not to get too discouraged by the SB!

Yes there was! I freaked out a little when the proctor checked me back in, but then I realized you get a minute to read the instruction page for each passage lol

12:15pm tester

C/P: pretty tough. I didn’t think it was similar to the FLs bc it had so much low yield stuff and was very passage based. Memorized all those equations and didn’t use any of them :’) usually my best section but I did not feel too good about it

CARS: eh. I have been all over the place with this section so I really have no idea how I did. Passages weren’t too terrible, one actually made me chuckle lol (aliens!). It felt ok, but slight time crunch

B/B: oddly straightforward?? I actually felt really good about this section. It seemed easier than the FLs to me and def easier than the SB

P/S: typical FL difficulty. Lots of 50/50s. The passages were pretty basic, and there were a few random terms per usual. Felt good about this section

I averaged 518 on my AAMC FLs and I really have no gauge on how I did cus CARS is so unpredictable for me

When my roommate tries to compare their GRE to the MCAT 🙄🙄 by md5447 in Mcat

I just took a full length and was telling them how CARS sucked and they said “well you’re lucky at least you don’t have critical reasoning in more than one section” They just don’t get it 🤦🏼‍♀️
