I got a 13 today on AAMC IV

So I took AAMC IV today at Kaplan... Lots of fun. I finish and take it to the front desk where they keep the scantron machine. 30 Seconds later the first page of my 'report' spits out. It says I got a 13. A 13? Yep.


Now, from a purely statistical standpoint, the odds of me getting that low of a score are nil, especially considering the absolute lowest I had ever gotten on a diagnostic was a 20, which was cold turkey...

So, before I start to lose my head, I get the rest of the report as it comes out of the printer and say thanks before leaving.

I'm holding it together, and I'm thinking to myself that this can't be right.

My girlfriend picks me up and asks me, "How'd it go?"
I just shake my head no. That, and the fact that I had my report all rolled up
really let her know something was wrong.
I told her what happened, and we went home.
So, I reentered all of my answers and what did I get?

A 27.

For some of you thats shockingly bad, but for me thats an improvement on where I started and I'm pretty happy with it.

To make a long story short. Don't trust the desk people at Kaplan.

Has this ever happened to anyone else?
Or am I the lone guy with really ****ty luck?

LOL i know notto trust them
i got a 4-4-4 thats a 12
thats my 3r score according to them
i started screaming like i was cursed..its bc their book of codes is messed on AAMC stuff
u haveto bubble it in yourself..dont trust the kids to look it up right!
in the end they rescanned mine because i made a scene sobbing on their front desk like they beat me with a stick 🙂

The psychological impact of having something like this happen has far reaching implications, or am I just overreacting?

Heh

Haha, it would have been worse if it was like a 21, so you actually believed it could be right but it was still bad enough to make you depressed. When you get a 13, you pretty much know something is wrong.
