Below our mcat score, it asks what we want to do with our score. and there's an option for you to designate schools to send it to.


I thought the scores would be sent directly to our amcas app? Or am I wrong, and we have to manually select each school to send it to? HELP!

You shouldn't have to do anything. It should be loaded into AMCAS automatically. For some reason, that hasn't happened yet, though. Anyone out there have any info on how long that score loading process takes?

Those links under the scores, to answer your question though, are there for you to send your scores to non-AMCAS schools and programs.

haha, yeah, i was sitting here credit card in hand myself ready to let that amcas fly and be done with it....but i guess we'll all have to wait til tomorrow. i'm guessing if it didn't load by midnight central (since they're based in the midwest, right?) that we probably won't see any changes til the start of the business day tomorrow.

good luck to everyone though! and good night! :sleep:

you would only use those options for example if you were applying to DO schools and you needed to forward your scores to AACOMAS.
 
okay, thanks for the responses. I already submitted my app early, so amcas will automatically forward my scores to the schools then?
 
If you are applying to the Texas schools you need to have your scores forwarded to TMDSAS.
