10 days to go!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Kinda scary, but I just found today at a career fair that both of my school take your best attempt, no limit in attempts.... not that I want to right this thing 156 times but I feel good knowing that either way.
 
I've sort of just assumed that its a certain number and been going with that. It's the score I got on AAMC 9, my last practice test. I'm hoping my real score is just a confirmation of that.

I wish it was my AAMC 9 score. I just don't think I performed as well, though. We'll see in 10 days... :scared:

I resonate with that. Unfortunately, there's still a small, fragile space of hope left in me yet. 😳
 
So does everyone just feel like the real test will be lower then practice. I just hope it works out in the end and we end up with practice scores or better.

the real test felt at least 5 pts lower than my practice tests. I hope my gut feeling is wrong! 😳
 
Does everbody think the real test was incredibly hard compared to the practice tests? I did, and I hope I'm not alone because of that beautiful curve 🙂
 
i feel like i bombed bs, and rocked ps. which is complete opposite of my practice scores. vr was a little scary, but my scores were all over the board with that, so i feel like it just depends on if my ADD brain liked the subject or not and could concentrate.

any consenus on the day/time of release? im hoping for friday night...

Who knows?! They can decide to trick us or mess with our minds (like they always do) by releasing it a day or two earlier or later. But hopefully no later than Friday, Oct 14, 2359 hours.
 
Ahh I've got a cross-country race on saturday and we're staying at a hotel the night before...debating whether to wait until afterwards or ask my parents to check my score for me. Then again, if they tell me, it might be like the time they came to a race and told me my cat died. You just can't run well after news like that.
 
I would just plan on getting drunk Fri/Saturday night....either way you can't go wrong

I cant hold my fear and excitment anymore...i really wanna know soon...


Also, my advisor told me that in the past, the AAMC sent the mcat scores out a week earlier for all school advisors. Do you guys think it still happens nowadays, because I went to talk to my advisor and he said "I dont think u will improve ur score more than 2-3points" so I got scared feeling that he might have received my score first.

any comments guys.....

I don't think so. Doesn't make sense, especially for me since I don't even know who my advisor is. Don't worry dude, I'm sure your advisor doesn't know your score.

It don't see why they would do that. We payed the $210 to take the test, not our advisors.
 
i rmmeber for april score release my advisor todl us she coudl see all our scores as soon as they were released. at least that part is true
 
The advisor only sees the score if you tell AAMC to release it to them. I think there was an option when I was registering for the MCAT that asked this. I could be wrong. . but I clicked "no" to not release it to anyone.

Can anyone confirm/deny this?

i believe u r correct about advisors knowing well in advance--i posted this before. it ticks me off. that and jury duty over the upcoming days... when will i ever get the scores i'm not sure i want to see hahahaha

I dont know about all schools but I go to VCU and speak to the pre-health advisor often. When MCAT scores came out he wrote me saying he saw my score!! I was shocked. I didn't care much but I just didn't know he had access to the scores

that just freaks me out. they should let you know what you got, should you want to hear it from them. i think this whole wait is just ridiculous!
 
i figure ill check my score on sunday night... i don't want to ruin my weekend... and i plan on being drunk when i do check the score... i figure the anxiolytic affects of alcohol will help me get through the initial shock and pain...

im expecting the worse, i had an alarm go off all of verbal, so i KNOW i didn't do well...

woo hoo january mcat :-/
 
Ugh, post-MCAT syndrome is very real. And it hurts. I'll just be minding my own business, when something will remind me of the MCAT, and suddenly I get that knotting feeling in my stomach, and I can't help but go over different score combinations. Sometimes I make myself feel better by imagining that I did alot better than I think, but then I feel guilty, like I'm jinxing myself or something.

Now that scores are only a few days away, the knotting feeling doesnt leave...its like always there, in the back of my mind. AAAAHHHH. I'm such a wimp.

Last night, I dreamt i got a high MCAT score and it seriously felt real! Then I woke up and felt like shi*t. When I went back to sleep, I started dreaming and got a ridiculously low score...man what a night

I guess that means that u'll score in the middle.
 
I'm really sorry guys. I know when I had to wait it drove me crazy. But it will all be over soon. Good luck! :luck:

hah, last week i dreamt i got a 25. and I was happy about it for some reason. I know exactly what your talking about when you say it felt real....VERY real.
 
I just wanna know. I'm just getting real anxious, and I have the feeling that I don't know what I'd do if I scored low. So much rides on three sets of numbers and a letter.

See, a couple of weeks ago I dreamt I got a 35 and that I was uber disappointed (in the dream). Later on I dreamt that there'd been a mistake and I'd actually gotten a 29. I wanted the 35 back! 😳
