just wondering how multiple scores are viewed.. thanks.

Hi, I hope everyone is doing fine. I am close to start studying for the MCAT which I am planning to take on April 2023. I got my hands on used books from TBR and EK thanks to some friends who passed them down to me. I was wondering which ones would be better to use for content review. For now my...

Just got my MCAT score back. First time test taker and mortified to see I got a 123 on CARS. My other scores are 129/123/129/130 for an overall score of 511. Just some background I served four years in the United States Army as a combat medic and since being honorably discharged in 2018 I have...

Isn't the basal ganglia also involved in emotion especially since dopamine is involved in this area?

When 2.0 mL of 0.1 M NaOH(aq) is added to 100 mL of a solution containing 0.1 M HClO(aq) and 0.1 M NaClO(aq), what type of change in the pH of the solution takes place? Hey ya'll, so the answer here is . I do understand the "intuitive" way of answering this (which is the basis of the AAMC...

1) On UWorld, it says dNTP cleavage is exergonic but phosphodiester bond formation is endergonic. I thought bond formation is exergonic since energy is released whereas cleavage is endergonic since energy needs to be put in? Unless this is the only exception? 2) Increasing carbon-oxygen bond...

Hi there, I've taken all the pre reqs for med school besides biochem so far. I take biochem this fall. I want to take the MCAT in January 2020, so if I use a test prep company, would it be best to start studying for the MCAT now (~6 months of studying) or wait until September when school...

Just took the AAMC sample test C/P : 80% CARS: 75% B/B: 81% P/S: 83% I feel like this was a fluke since I was scoring on average 62% on EK 1,2,3 Finished content review and have been doing Uworld for the last 2 weeks and am about 1/4 done with it and plan to do more questions per day. Is...

Took FL1 AAMC prior to content review and got a 490 (pretty low, I know). But I'm almost done with content review for EK ( 2 weeks out ) and just recently took their EK test 3. I've been scoring on average 60% for the first 3 EK exams and my score dropped for the third exam (CARS was brutal)...

^^^^^^

I've been browsing the forum and alot of schedules rely heavily on EK or TBP, and I can't seem to find one that focuses more on TPR. Anyone have any suggestions? Edit: I would also like to incorporate khan academy if possible

Hi everyone. I'm extremely concerned about the MCAT. My test date is in May and I just took the NextStep half length diagnostic exam. My score was a so low, my stomach dropped and I about passed out. It was 482. My goal is a 511 at least on the actual exam. Is there any hope? Should I just...

So I've never been a great student and I've had a lot of trouble with depression and motivation over the years. I graduated UCSD with my B.S. in Physiology and Neuroscience. with cGPA 3.429 sGPA 3.38 and nsGPA 3.65 which is not catastrophic but when you include all the screwing around I did in...

I hope this doesn't come across the wrong way as I understand this is a nice problem to have. But I've found that I'm finishing in roughly half the allotted time (e.g. I started a FL today exactly at 8 and I finished around 11:30). I have a couple questions about this - 1) On test day, do we...

Do many people make one? Like memorize it and then dump it on the scratch paper once you sit down? Or is it more useful to just learn the relationships between variables?

Hi this is the first time I'm writing a post like this. I'm wanting to know what MCAT score to absolutely shoot for to have a fighting chance. I know my GPA is on the lower end my my ECs are pretty solid. I calculated my cGPA and sGPA w/ a AMCAs calculator excel sheet I found on here (hopefully...

Hi All, I have taken biology/biochem and will be taking cell bio before the MCAT, but I am unfortunately forced to self-study Genetics before this test. I know it's not technically a required class but from what I've seen it certainly wouldn't hurt to know genetics off the back of your hand...

Hey guys, i took both aamc full length practice tests the last time I took the mcat and got around a 507 each time. Didn't get the score I wanted so I'm retaking. I got the books and kaplan pretty hard and I've improved in every subject. Since I took both full lengths I don't have an aamc score...

I finished studying all of the new TBR books (70% or higher on ALL passages in ALL books), and it took me about two and a half months. When I took a diagnostic TBR, I scored a 130. However, when I took Kaplan diagnostic and TPR diagnostic, I consistently scored no higher than 500. I just took an...

I'm using the old version of the Berkeley Review to get ready for the exam, but I am worried that the 2011 version that I am using will not adequately cover biochem. Also I think their ochem might be more in-depth than I need for the 2015 MCAT. Any suggestions as to what I should do especially...

I have been taking Next Step exams and have scored NS1 503 NS2 503 (58% Correct Overall) However, I did really poor on one section (P/S 49% correct) and Next step gave me a 125 in that section. So how accurate are these scores? I had a friend take all 10 Next Step exams and average...

Hey guys...6/30 test taker here. Scores come out in 5 days and I am freaking out. I took several kaplan tests pretty early and made 500, 501, and 502. I heard they were pretty deflated so all is well. AAMC FL2 (2015) afterwards and made a 507 (127, 126, 128, 126). Better and closer to my goal of...

Hello, I am currently registered for June 29th MCAT. I took AAMC practice test 2 yesterday and only scored a 501. Now I am debating pushing it back to July 22 ( the next earliest exam day). I want to apply to MD and DO schools. Would it be considered to late of an MCAT? I will try to get my...
