Good point, btw does anybody know if we are allowed to do a memory dump on our scratch paper during the tutorial? I get that we should know all the stuff already but i just think it would help me to have something to fall back on.
That's your problem. Don't do the 77 question ones. They're not representative of the real mcat, They have verbal like passages in the longer tests that the shorter one doesn't have anymore. Spend some money to get 10 and 11, you'd be crazy not to attempt them. Do the short tests and see how you do. Maybe just do 11 because you really don't have time. Not taking the bio is pretty insane. I think you should probably void this test.
+1I'm so excited for this to be finally over. Only a few days left. Thank god.
what!? thats terrible, did they email you? where do you live? I think they give you priority to reschedule for the next available date (according to my classmate)
This is ridiculous...I don't want to wait until June 21st. I'm ready to take the test tomorrow
OK guys, this is it. Good luck everyone!
Good luck today ... everyone! Here is to crossing our fingers for each other.
I am very nervous.... especially after reading the 4/28/12 board yesterday. It seems that sooo many people did way worse on VR than their averages. Considering that I have not prepared an ounce for verbal and I have always scored 10-11, this terrifies me... it seems too based on luck.
I hope that there is not much orgo and I hope that the physics section is nice to me. <3

I thought bio and verbal were actually decently easy~
But phys were dificult for me~~~
I dunno why maybe i froze up. But there were a handful of questions i just couldnt get right~~~
i thought physical was pretty easy
verbal was hard...the passages were not bad to read but the questions were pretty difficult
bio was okay
Edit: did you do it at the Montreal place, by any chance?

I thought verbal was hard... man I really really hope I don't have to retake I was hoping to apply this cycle...
Congrats guys. We're done! I was retaking today after getting a 31 in January even though my AAMC average was a 34. Hoping to get an evenly distributed 33 or 34 this time.
PS- seemed pretty straightforward but calculation heavy. I noticed a few problems where there was a simple trick to get you around the calculations of you recognized it. I felt a lot more confident than I did last time but it may just have been due to nerves the first time and not a difference in difficulty. Pretty even chem and phys balance.
VR- I got a 9 on verbal last time. I feel really good about this section this time. The first passage was by far the hardest. If you didn't get rattled and burn time it you were home free. Verbal is unpredictable so we'll see.
BS- this is my best section hands down but I know I'm not going to get a 13 like last time. 2 of the passages were difficult (one seemed to rely on a lot of outside knowledge so one or two of the questions may have been experimental. Had a lot of super easy discretes but also one or two I could only narrow down and guess on. There seems to be a trend of the organic passages just requiring reasoning and not a whole lot of actual organic knowledge.
Is this similar to what you guys thought? Love to hear some other opinions.
