Do I have to void if I think I might have scored in the 20s?

Under what circumstances should I void my MCAT? Is it that bad to have a 24 or 25 show up on your MCAT transcript even if you scored in the 30s the second time?

Only void if something ridiculous happened to you while testing that you know for a fact your score will be bad.

as in, you got a nosebleed. You panicked and left two entire passages blank. Fire alarm went off. etc.

otherwise, you have no clue what you would score and that test you're voiding may turn out to be okay

I would agree with Jepstein30 - you never know how your final score will turn out to be.
Be aware that your real score will not be very far from your AAMC test score. Especially AAMC #10 onwards.

I would say follow your AAMC average and your gut. If you truly think there were large parts of the test that you just blanked, then I would void. But if you just have a bad feeling, then don't.

Agree with above, I freaked out after and ended up doing quite in line with my AAMC average (mid 30s)... Would be very hesitant to void

I think the only reason I would void is if I missed an entire passage or something crazy like that
