So its pretty much coming to that home stretch and everything that could've been done has been done, now im just reviewing certain topics that I feel might need some improvements and doing some verbal and science practice passages. I would like a critique of where I stand with respect to the mcat. This is my second time taking it and I tried to rectify all the mistakes I made the first time but If I'm not ready I don't want to take it again hoping I'll get a good score like last time and then getting a bad score. Here are aamc practice test results, these are in order of how I took them.

aamc 6-12,9,11= 32
aamc 7-13,8,11= 32
aamc 10-10,6,10= 26, don't know what happened here.
aamc 11- 12,8,13= 33
aamc 8- 13,10,11= 34
aamc 9- 13,9,10= 32 (1 question away from a 14 and 10 in P.S. and V.B.)

Where do you guys think I stand for this upcoming mcat date?

looks fine. only thing that bothers me is that aamc 10 verbal but it could be a fluke.

yea, that was the reason why I was asking. That aamc is the only thing that kind of doesn't make me feel confident. When I went over it I noticed I made a couple of stupid mistakes in the P.S. and B.S., like blatant stupid mistakes. As for the verbal, after over 2 months of practice verbal finally started coming to me and I finally started to understand what I was reading, I am trying now to just continue with verbal practice because it seems as though it is getting better little by little.

for what it's worth, i normally averaged like 12-13 on AAMC verbals, with the random 11 and 14... and I got a 8 on AAMC Verbal 10. I was also exhausted for that exam and kind of wasted it as a practice without taking it seriously, but i def took a dip.
 
Yep I averaged 11 on VB and went down to a 9 on AAMC 10...I honestly think it's because I started school and have been getting pretty burnt out. Hopefully aamc 11 goes back up.
 
I just dropped 6 points from my average on AAMC 10...so it may not just be you

Glad to know its not just me, hoping its just the test or maybe just a 1 time fluke type deal.

Yea I just started school last week and Iv also been feeling pretty burnt out recently but I have my schedule set up that I will have minimal to no studying the last 3 days, maybe just very light review and a verbal passage or two each day.
