Nova's last question in their secondary: Please explain any gaps or inconsistencies in either academic or standardized test performances throughout your undergraduate, graduate, or post-graduate career.
I took the MCAT twice. 505 (126/126/124/129) first time and then 508 (128/125/127/128) second time. During CARS, I spent too much time at the beginning and was basically unable to read the last couple of passages (chose random answers). Didn't want to void because I knew I could do well on the rest of the exam.
What is the right way to explain this low subsection score without making excuses? I have a 3.97 overall GPA, nailed all my English courses and am a native English speaker.
