Many of you sent me encouraging posts yesterday which I greatly appreciated and still do!
However, the gravity of my score is near ridiculous! It's like I fell off of a building onto my head right before the test.
I scored straight 9's on my practice tests (not great but at least somewhat competitive)and COMPLETELY fell apart on the real thing....
The EXACT same thing happened to me with the
ACT and GRE. Fortunately, I was at least given the opportunity to "prove" myself and was accepted on a probationary admission both in undergrad and again in grad school. After one semester, I proved my self in each case and was removed from probationary status.
When I took my national board exams for both of my grad programs, I did very well, totally opposite of the other tests......
I'm really terrified that I won't be able to bring up my score enough because I'm just terrible at this kind of test.............
My application has been submitted but not yet verified. Should I call AMCAS and stop it from being sent to the schools? I really think they'll either laugh or think I'm a nut for submitting it, especially if they don't look at my application as a whole!
WHAT should I do?????
I have been avoiding the docs and my friends at work so far because I just know I'm going to break down......
I'm getting more and more depressed! (not to the point of doing something stupid.....just extremely down and teary!!!!!!!!!!!)
