Hi fellow August 1sters

I'm shocked that there isn't a thread for this date already!
It's July 24th today, meaning we have approx a week left....
How's studying going? STAY SANE!

For those of you who want to have another avenue with which to be neurotic today: this is the MCAT Twitter page. They will tweet the moment the scores are up.

With that being said....

I never felt so uneasy for something. This is either going to be a good day for me or a crappy one.
 
I'm going to go ahead and post my guess:
09/10/08
... prepare for the worst hope for the best...
 
I am trying so hard to stay busy and keep my mind off of it...... it's not working though!! AHHH!!!! :scared:

I wonder how bs section will turn out

That... AND PS. I feel like the general consensus is that it was straight forward... may be a little tougher of a scale. Ugh, and verbal!? Easy content, difficult questions. BAH! So, I guess it will be interesting to see how the entire thing turns out ;)

BS murdered me - first tortured, then murdered. And now I am a zombie typing this.

Oh I gotcha. Sorry, I was being facetious. I know for a fact that I missed 5. I would say I probably took a 50/50 guess on 10 and a complete guess on 10

This is my second MCAT and I did terribly on the sections I thought I did well on and well on the sections I thought I did terribly. It's really anybody's guess to be honest with you. I understand how nerve wracking it is, but you will find out soon enough. If worse comes to worst you can re-take it. My fingers are crossed for you and everybody freaking out.
 
I'm going full freaking sympathetic right now.

EDIT: All eyes on us. We've had over 1,000 new views on this thread in the last hour.
 
I'm at work in a neurosurgery clinic.... I am having a hard time being compassionate - "I'm sorry your anuerysm clipping failed, but I'm waiting on my MCAT scores."

Please use the following:

Guess I'll be the first one..

Post-test expected score: 28-30
Actual Score: ( PS / V / BS): 30 (11/10/9):soexcited:

Very happy with a pretty balanced score! Surprised at the 10 in VR though. Also the 9 in BS is the lowest I ever scored. Guess the curve wasn't as lenient

last test: PS 10 VR 5 BS 10
august 1: PS 12 VR 7 BS 11

I'm not retaking so screw that. I'm taking the DAT this November so I'm applying to both med and dentistry. For some reason I'm not happy but at least I'm not reading another mcat book..
