Is there any correlation between the MCAT and ACT scores?
I know that this has been posted before, but I would like a fresh opinion from everyone. Also how did you all perform on the test comparatively?

Not ACT, but I got a 1360 (85th percentile or something) on the SAT but I knew I was capable of scoring higher.

Here comes the MCAT, let's just say I scored pretty high and it's safe to assume there's really no strong correlation between the two. 😉

All i know is that my ACT was identical to my MCAT. Go figure

I think if you were too look at a large number there would be a definite correlation, but it's not perfect, so in individual cases, many will fit the curve and many will seem to contradict it.

1480 on my SAT...33R on my MCAT.

I think I'm getting dumber with age. Or perhaps it's just senility. Oh, look, another liver-spot. I'm going to go drink my ensure now and take a nap.

Based upon the name of the test, 75% correlation.

I got the in the same percentile on both 😀 😀 😀 😀

However, the SAT was worse, percentile wise!!!!
Maybe because the SAT's math is rather unlike anything on the mcat, and the ACT science is like a idiot version of mcat science passages. Also those SAT verbal word analogies are unlike anything on the mcat .

I gained a lot of speed between the two. I had a 29 on the ACT but a 35 on the MCAT.
