Can we highlight?

I have this habit of highlighting two lines at a time when I read online. What I mean by highlighting is that I select two lines as if I was to copy them. Does the real MCAT let you do that?

P.S I'm not talking about highlighting yellow, which I think you can. But I'm talking about holding on to the left button on the mouse and dragging the mouse to "select" lines. I hope I'm being specific about the highlighting I'm asking about!

I do the same thing, and unfortunately when you do this on the MCAT it turns your selected area into a permanent highlighted yellow. I'm unaware of any way to disable yellow highlighting on the MCAT, or whether its even possible.

damn...someone suggested to using your index finger to increase reading speed. I'd feel really stupid putting my finger by the screen on the real MCAT. And then I realized, I do a similar thing by highlighting every line that I read online. Since I've been doing highlighting ever since I first used a computer to read news/books, I'm really used to it, and i can't read properly w/o highlighting. This sucks! I guess I'll put my finger on the screen.

I don't think you can disable the highlighting, but if you simply highlight the same area again the yellow will go away. Seems a bit tedious to me though.
