Hello,

I believe I found an error on the MCAT, Of course I am not 100 percent sure, but just wondering if anyone had experienced this before, and if they took action by sending the MCAT a letter what did they respond? Did they grade the test?

Thanks

I did find an error too but I can't remember which one but I believe it was in one of the graphs or in the passage itself. I seriously can't remember that's why I can't inform them.

Its possible that there are errors. I vaguely remember one typo on my MCAT. Those errors are likely to be part of an experimental passage if I had to guess. I could be wrong though.

I wouldn't really mind them having one error in an entire exam. These guys of AAMC make 25 different exams each year and the exams don't repeat again I heard so that's pretty much a lot of effort going on here. So we have to be considerate. I would also say that the error I saw did not really affect me because I could tell it was an error and it's obvious how to fix it without asking AAMC to fix it.

If you strongly believe they made a mistake, you could try contacting the AAMC and voicing your concern.
