My exam is in 20 days and I just don't know what to do anymore. I took the aamc fl2 yesterday and scored pretty bad. I literally bombed CARS. My scores C/P 129, CARS 121, B/B 127, P/S 126 which ended up 503 and my goal is +510. My previous scores:
TPR FL1 493
BluePrint fl1 504 (taken 11/15) 128/124/126/126
AAMC FL1 (taken in 12/11) 504 127/125/125/127
I think I can score better in P/S but CARS is just bs. I haven't been practicing CARS lately cus I've been focusing on the other sections but I don't know how much I can improve on CARS. I feel like it's a hit or miss, I either get a passage that I can understand or I don't. I recently bought the MCAT diagnostic tool for CARS but I haven't had the chance to finish it.
Do you guys think I should take my exam and see how well I do? and if I didn't do well I can always retake it? Also my GPA from undergrad is 3.8 for both science and cumulative so I was thinking in case I get a similar MCAT score on the real thing, my GPA can compensate for the low MCAT score. What do you guys think? I'm interested in MD schools btw
EDIT: I took aamc fl1 in 12/11+ added bp score
