After taking a number of AAMC practice tests, I'm growing extremely concerned that there will be questions on the MCAT that will be counted against me because I give an answer is correct and the AAMC is dead wrong. (Like blatantly, unquestionably wrong, but in a way that someone without a deep understanding of the material would think is correct.) The problem here, of course, is that most people will give an answer that, while incorrect, agrees with the AAMC's choice. Unlike an ambiguous question, where statistically speaking no one is at an advantage, here the advantage will go exclusively to those who know less about the subject. This has happened on a number of occasions on the practice tests, and since these are written by the AAMC, I expect no better from them on the actual exam. The question-challenging system they offer seems purposely useless. I will not be told which questions I got wrong or why I am supposedly wrong, and then I am expected to object within five days of the exam? Totally absurd.
Does anyone else have similar concerns?
