Am I missing a step? MCAT score not at one school...

I submitted my application to a school about 2 weeks ago and didn't think anything further of it. I just went in and saw that they are apparently still waiting on my MCAT score? What should I do about this? My MCAT was done in 2016 and my AMCAS application was done in July.

Does it show up on the primary? It's better to just call the school.

Some of the craziest things can happen on AMCAS transmission. One school, in particular, downloaded my LOR's from AMCAS twice.

Yeah, it is on the primary. But I don't have any II's from my AMCAS schools, just TMDSAS. Now I'm nervous that it didn't get to any schools. Wow, this is really a shot in the foot because this particularly school is already accepting large portions of the class and filling up their interviews. I'll call them tomorrow morning, that's a good idea.

Have you received any complete emails from any AMCAS school?

WOW. Okay, going back through my schools, it seems that I had one unrelated app that wasn't submitted from over a month ago...wow. I really should've been watching these more closely. I do have MCAT scores at all the other schools. However, I added this school late and by itself, so it could be a 'batch' issue?

I had this problem too, with a few different schools. When I called the Admissions office to ask what was going on, they told me it was just a matter of time for the score to be imported by the school. I wouldn't worry about it, your scores will get there soon!

I appreciate the reassurance and will give them a call tomorrow just to confirm since it’s been about three weeks! Don’t want to miss all the chances at interview slots 🙁

For those curious on the final result:

The school I was applying to does not accept the Jan 2016 MCAT. This is the only school I applied to that wouldn't accept it (April 2016 and more recently) and I added this school late after being impressed by what people said here on SDN, so I must have rushed and missed that. I've applied for an MCAT waiver at the advice of an admissions officer 🙂

Is this for GW? I had the same problem with the same test date, and they approved the waiver. Best of luck!
