Command F on the MCAT 2015

[BackpacksMadeByJanSport]

This may be a dumb question, but are we allowed to search for specific words within the passage using the command f find tool (or whatever it is on PCs). I feel this would be a great advantage and I wouldn't have to waste time scrolling through the passage to find specifically what the question is asking, especially w/ CARS.

I'm not sure about the 2015 MCAT but I know on the old exam we were NOT able to use the find tool. It was strange because ctrl F would work on the practice exams but was disabled on the actual exam.

No.

There is no Command F function on the MCAT according to my Kaplan instructors.

No, which I why I never used it in practice tests. Also why I always prescreened the verbal questions.

No. But in the new test, they do make it easier to find specific information in the passage... Can't say anything beyond that.

I actually tried command + F during the real test and it didn't work. Didn't try alt +f4 though but who knows if that one works
