So I just got my June 15th scores back and was not happy with a 24Q, 8's across the board. I was pretty shocked since this was lower than all of my practice scores and even my Kaplan diagnostic. I do want to retake but I don't know what to do differently this time around.
I already took a Kaplan course, had some (iffy) tutoring, and studied for months. My practice scores were 27-30, I had never gotten lower than a 10VR. I wasn't freaking out on test day- I don't know how it happened.
For anyone else who re-took and improved, or anyone who studied using different methods and did well, any advice would be great! I'm one year out of school and working full-time so studying 8 hours a day is not an option. The rest of my application is ok but I definitely need a 30+ for MD, and I'd like to improve for DO too. How do I get my score up? Thanks!
