They mentioned that their grading scale for their diagnostic is statistically significant because they've had alot of people sit for it.. but without more information, even that is almost useless.. (ie: are the people who sat for it all just taking it for the first time as the diag? is this test the one that they give for free as the 'free MCAT' to get you to take the course?)
so my question is.. how representative is the grade from the diag? Do people usually tend to score lower/higher (3 or 4+)/way higher (8+) than it on the real MCAT?
I realize its really a loaded question since going into the course, people likely haven't done any prepareation and studying.. and probably may not even take the diagnostic all that seriously... but just curious as to what other people have experienced..
if you've already taken the MCAT, and taken the diag, care to share what was the point improvement?
also for those of you who've taken it, how does the diag compare to the real MCAT? is it harder? easier? I took the diag this weekend and it didn't seem too bad at all. Not to say it was easy.. but I was expecting something that would completely blow me away.. and assumed it would be way harder than the real MCAT so that they they are less likely to have to pay up on their 'higher score' money back guarantee.
