Anyone leave the test, count at least 4 wrong in each section and still do well?

Please God, i need a miracle. I already know for sure i got at least 4 wrong in bio, and ps...some of it on really easy questions. GRRRR. Did anyone also realize they made stupid mistakes and then end up doing well?

Dude! don't even stress! if you only missed 4 in each section, you will get a 40+ score! its all depends on the curve!

Trust me relax!!! On my May exam I counted 3-4 wrong in physical sciences and 7+ wrong in biological sciences and got a 14 and 11 respectfully. Now I was also able to recall 25-30 questions from each section...

I think the curve on the real MCAT is more generous than the AAMC tests and you never know which questions are going to be experimental. Expect to get near your recent AAMC test average no matter how you feel now. Also try not to obsess over questions... it honestly ruined my entire June.

Hey, here's a little hope... a clause from the MCAT essentials (yes, i actually read through the damn thing...) says...not all the items will be graded, some are there for "evaluation" purpose only...or something of that sort :S Let's hope the ones you got wrong are part of those haha 😀

What do you mean experimental questions?
So if these questions don't get counted, are there more than 52 questions per section for the sciences?

Experimental questions are questions put on by the test maker that are not graded and are for "experimental purposes" only. Idk what that means exactly but they cannot hurt you if you get them wrong. Only problem is, you don't know which questions are experimental haha.

Are there experimental questions for each section of the test or just sciences?

Don't worry my child, Llama has peered into the future and you will be satisfied with your score. No sense in driving yourself crazy.
