Hi all,
I've browsed this forum for a while and am stuck in a tough situation so just made an account.
My MCAT is in two days and the highest I've scored on the Kaplan full length tests was a 499. I took the AAMC scored full length yesterday and scored a 498, which I was shocked about. After reviewing I made many careless mistakes throughout the exam. On the unscaled exam, the percentage of questions correct was higher for CARS and the behavioral section, and this was four days ago although I don't know what the scaled score would have been.
Basically, I'm at the point where I am considering to void my exam on Thursday. I've been studying since February now (was a full time student, have been studying non-stop for the past two weeks) and I really thought I'd be scoring well above a 505 right now.
I'm just really discouraged at this point. What do you guys think? Any success stories? Or should I void and retake in August - which would cause me to take a gap year because in this case I wouldn't be applying this cycle.
Thanks for reading this and I really look forward to your thoughts!
