Quite disappointed with my scores, but here they are:

PAT 20
RC 19
Bio 22
GChem 22
Orgo 21
QR 14 (sigh)
TS 22
AA 20

First off, I felt like I KILLED reading comp and PAT. When I saw the scores...I was truely blown. As for the QR...I froze. My technique during practice exams was to skip all the word problems and do the rest then go back. That definitely did not help on the real thing. I was overwhelmed with word problems and just didn't work as fast as I know I could have.

What should I do?

Additional comments -
I was scoring on average 22-24 on the Topscore sciences. For all the topscore PAT I got 24, 25, 25 with 20 minutes to spare. Don't know what happened on the real test.

Some schools have cutoff scores even for QR. Call the schools of your choice to find out what to do. Except for QR, your scores are amazing! 👍

I'm in the same boat - except my AA is only 18... 19 and 20 on everything except QR 13.. i know exactly how you feel.
