I've finished the content review portion of sn2ed 3 month study plan and took the aamc practice test 3 scoring a 25. Should I continue with my mcat plan to take it on jan 25 or postpone it? I need to get in the 34-35 range. I felt prepared until i saw my score on this previous practice exam.
 
Is there any particular reason you need to take it in January vs. the spring? 10 points is a lot to improve in less than a month. You need to go back through the practice test carefully and evaluate what you made mistakes on and make a plan to address those issues and I think giving yourself more time for review and more practice tests would be beneficial.
 
10 point improvement from now until jan 25 seems like a lot. If it's your first time taking an aamc exam though, you might be able to jump a few points by just reviewing obvious weak points. I would postpone the exam if u want a 34-35

Don't base your judgments on one single practice exam from 2007 ... I've seen people improving by +5 points from AAMC 3 to AAMC 5 within 2 weeks..
