How are my practice tests looking?

[premed13]

Hello,

I took the MCAT last August and received a 9 on PS, 8 on VR, and 8 on BS for a 25 cumulative score. Will be taking it again on April 28th. Can someone tell me if I am doing well enough for 28+ on MCAT. I have retaken some AAMC and did new TBR CBT.

Practice tests from last year:
PS/VR/BS
AAMC 3: 8/9/9 (26)
AAMC 4: 10/8/9 (27)
AAMC 5: 9/8/10 (27)
AAMC 7: 7/7/10 (24)
AAMC 8: 11/11/9 (31)
AAMC 9: 11/9/11 (31)
AAMC 10: 8/7/9 (24)
AAMC 11: 9/9/10 (28)

AVG: 27.25

Practice Test from this year

AAMC 3: 10/9/11 (30)
AAMC 4: 11/7/11 (29)
AAMC 5: 11/9/11 (31)
AAMC 7: 10/11/10 (31)
AAMC 8: 10/10/11 (31)

AVG: 30.4

TBR1: 9/8/10 (27)
TBR2: 12/6/10 (28)
TBR3: 12/9/8 (31)
TBR4: 11/9/8 (28)
TBR5: 6/7/8 (21)
TBR6: 13/13/9 (35)
TBR7: 9/9/12 (30)

AVG: 28.57

I know the AAMC are inflated because it is my second time taking them, but the TBR are fresh so aside from TBR5 which was very hard how am I looking for the real deal on April 28th? Thanks

Bad News....

TBR #5 is the MOST representative of the new MCAT. You're fresh outta luck OP
















































Just kidding man.

I have no idea, so i'll just wait for others to respond

you're fine. chill

lol scared me for a bit, but I already knew the fifth CBT is one of the hardest

only 10 day left till your test, best to lightly content review for PS and BS, not much you can do for VR at this point.
try to rest so your mind is fresh on test date. good luck

Just took TBR 6, and got 13/13/9. Biology section is always hard on TBR, I hope biology isn't as difficult as my last years biology section with almost half organic. Anyone know how representative TBR 6 is?

What happened on your initial MCAT it looked like your scores were going to get you 27+

I don't know what happened they say +2 or -2 of average so I got the -2 end, the biology section on the real deal was very hard in my opinion. I didn't receive less than a 9 on the biology section of the AAMC practice tests and on the real I got an 8 which was surprising. The real test had 50% organic on the BS section and I did feel drowsy during the BS section. This time I am taking caffeine pills which I have been taking before the VR section.

I just did TBR 5 .. and i bombed it .. especially the PS section.. I got overall 27.. I am frustrated .. my TBR scores were TBR1 29, TBR2 31 , TBR3 30, TBR4 30, TBR5 27.. My goal is a 34-35 on MCAT .. these scores are degrading me and making me lose hope in myself..
I have put alot of work in this and iam not reaching my goal.. Plus I have not been seeing any topics that iam weak with..

I feel the same way especially since it's my second time studying. The TBR5 seems to be hardest for most people so don't let TBR5 discourage you. I would be ecstatic with a 30+ on the real deal. Just took TBR7 today and got 9/9/12.
