just received my scores for my first full length practice mcat from kaplan. Ive improved since my diagnostic, but Im not sure if my improvement is good enough considering how much Ive been studying.

the percentage right went up in each section and my scores went up a point in verbal, 2 points in physical, and no change in biology(even though I had the biggest percentage change in this area).
Overall an 18 to 21.

Just wondering if I keep at the same pace that I am at, I'll find myself scoring below what I hope to get on the real thing.

thanks
 
i don't remember the numbers exactly but I went from a 25 to a 32 on my second. on the rest (3rd 4th 5th) i got a 34-35-34. i did similarly on the mcat. so i'd say towards the end kaplan has a pretty good chanche of reflecting your eventual score.
 
i see I have my work cut out for me ...

thanks for the reply.
 
I went from a 15 to a 20/22 on kaplan 1. I got a 27 on the real deal. I think it's time for me to start studying for the next one.....

BTW blame it on Brandeis, that's what I do 😀
 
Well, I will tell you my score if it will help you feel better about yours. The first test that I took was a TPR diagnostic, I got a 21 on that, my next was a Kaplan diagnostic, got a 19 on that. After that, on the Kaplan tests, I scored in the 20's to the highest score that I ever got I think was a 32. Right after I took the actual MCAT, I was all worried that I wouldn't break 30, but I was pleasantly surprised that the score that I actually got on the MCAT was a 36. So don't worry about a low diagnostic score or low practice test score, if anything, it keeps you motivated to study hard up until the day the test comes.

heh. I actually didn't take any of my sciences at Brandeis cept for 2 attempts at gen chem 1 which I failed miserably each time...
