I already postponed the exam twice. I feel like this is becoming a habit. My score are not where I want them to be. I am scheduled to take the MCAT June 13th.
postpone again
I'm guessing your scores have leveled off and you're having trouble getting over the hump. I wouldn't advise taking the MCAT unless your full length practice tests are scoring in a range you're comfortable with since it's very unlikely that there will be an increase in your score on the real MCAT. Of course, you don't want to postpone it forever, so I think at some point (which you have to determine yourself) you just have to bite the bullet and take the test. I think taking it in June and then re-taking it if your score is not good isn't such a bad idea at this point. At least with SOME score you can apply if you want to.
Should I postpone my MCAT if I scored a 20 on AAMC 5 exam? This is like a never ending cycle.
please advice.
Don't take the test until you're ready. If you're satisfied with what you're getting on the practice exam, then take it. 😱 Otherwise, postpone it. A miracle is unlikely to happen on the day of the exam where you'll gain 10 points higher than your practice exam.Chances are higher that you'll score even less than what you've practice due to an increase level of stress and who knows what could happen at the test center.
okay it is just that my parents want me to take it this june.
If I cancel my exam, can I take it this year? Do I have to keep rescheduling it?
I'd imagine you can cancel and reschedule the test as many times as you want, but you can only take the test, what, 3 times in a year? (maybe more than that, but I'm too lazy to look it up).
Was that 20 a ridiculous outlier and your other full length test scores are much higher, or is a 20 about the norm? Because if it's the norm then I'm going to have to agree with WinterLights on this one.
What the difference between canceling and rescheduling the exam?
I guess maybe I'm misunderstanding what you mean by "cancelling." Do you mean voiding? This is where you go to the test site, take the test, then choose the "Void" option at the end of the exam to not have it scored. These voids DO count toward your 3 (or whatever) total allowed times to take the test in a year.
If you mean cancelling as in withdrawing your seat reservation, then you can do that as often as you like, I guess.
I mean rescheduling to be when you make a seat reservation. So if you cancel a seat reservation, you have to reschedule the exam. That make sense?
Can I cancel the exam and still be able to take the MCAT this year? I thought that if you cancel the exam then you will not be able to take it this year too. It that right.
This seems like as good of a thread to ask this in as any:
Is there any rule on how quickly you can retake the MCAT? Like a month, two months, etc after you've taken it?
