I thought it was much harder than 3R-5R. I got 10s on those and just go 8 (1 question away from 9) on 6R. Should I be worried or just ignore it? I didn't study for the verbal at all, concentrated on the sciences.

I would be worried...6R and AAMC 7 are supposed to be very indicative of the real MCAT since they are more recent. Just practice some verbal passages in the upcomming week.

yeah, you should be very worried.

jeez guys 🙂

i wouldn't worry. i think everyone can have an off day in verbal. i thought i was this verbal master who got a lot of 11s on the EK tests and an 11 on 4R...then i got a 9...one q away from an 8....on 5R...then a 12 on 6R and an 11 on 7 today.

I guess the moral of the story is that you can have an off day or get a stupid passage...That's whats scary about the mcat I think. At any rate, I would forget about it, plan on a 10 and go in there and get it.

i personally thought the verbal on 6R was easier than the 3R-5R. But then , my ******* barely made a 9. Once again I didn't finish the last passage and got killed on the freaking formalist critic passage. I missed 5 questions on the formalist critic. Time to go hang myself now!

Hey man if it makes you feel any better, I missed 6 questions on the "formalist critic".... nothing to brag about though 😳
what a let down

i got the same thing on 6R as i had gotten on 3, 4, and 5. at least i'm consistent!

Thanks for responding guys. I hated that formalist critic passage. Still have 7R left and I refuse to get anything less than 10 on its verbal.

i took poetry last semester, and my teacher wrote her Phd in formalist criticism ... needless to say i aced that passage

unfortunately, other passages took me down

Don't worry about it ... I got a 10 on 5R and 7, a 9 on 4R and 6R, and a 10 on the real deal. Just wait and see how you do on 7.
