I'm signed up to take the MCAT in mid-April just outside of Chicago but am feeling that with my state of preparation and upcoming conflicting exams it would probably be worth it to change my date to May to do better both on my exams and on the MCAT. I figure that it won't impact my application that much since I would have my scores back in June (can you have AMCAS start processing your transcripts before your MCAT score is in, or is *everything* delayed?).
I went to change my date, and it looks like they're using a google map system. I tried every date in May in pretty much everywhere within a 2 hr drive of Chicago, and it just perpetually says "checking for seats" with a spinning clock icon. It's never actually said that there weren't any seats available, and the clock graphic never stopped spinning. Should I assume that everthing is full already? Or should I let it "spin" for more than the 10 minutes I've been letting it go?
Has anyone else tried to change their MCAT date yet? Did the site actually say "no seats available?" Or is the perpetually spinning clock a sign that there just isn't anything available? I figured that everything would be full in May, but I'm still hoping. I'll of course try to call tomorrow when they open to see if someone can check for me to be sure. I really don't trust their web site, especially since it took me 9 hours just to register for my April date back in January. Thanks
