Hey guys,
So I just took the MCAT this past Saturday and it did not go as smoothly as my practice exams went. I generally finished on time or early on all my practice tests (AAMC and TBR) and usually scored anywhere from 30-34, with 32 being my average. However, on the real exam I felt like I was guessing a lot on the bio section. I felt that it was more like a verbal section than the bio we saw in the AAMC's and I was a little taken back. I also ran out of time in the physical sciences section and had to rush through the last passage.
Is this is normal feeling that people have after their MCAT? I definitely don't feel like I scored how I was scoring on my practice test... I mean how could I if I didn't even finish on time?
I have a pretty solid grasp of the material I guess I just had a nervous episode on the exam. Should I just start studying again before I forget the material?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks to all that reply and good luck in your future endeavors!!!
