Hey, I'm another frantic premed taking the MCAT this week.😱 A prompt response is greatly appreciated. The AAMC practice exams sometimes let me embed notes in the VR passages and sometimes not. Does anyone know for sure whether we can embed notes into the passage on the actual MCAT? Thanks!

Nope. Can't search either.

All you can do is highlight in the passage and strikeout answer choices. The highlighting disappears after you move to a different passage, but the strikeouts stay. Here is a link to a the tutorial for exactly how the setup will be on the real thing (it was sent to me in an email by kaplan).

There is a problem in this tutorial with the buttons in the writing section. Just hit tab until it highlights the "next" button and hit enter to move on. ( On the real thing this didn't happen).

Good luck with everything!

sooo i just went through that tutorial and i have one question... is the review all button at the bottom of each screen during the entire test section (like in kaplan online tests?)

or do you have to keep pressing Next to get all the way to the end to see what u have and have not marked? 😕

Yes you can move to the review all screen from each passage. I think the "review marked" button might be there too, but I can't remember for sure (everything's such a blur now!). But if not, you can always just hit review, then hit "review marked" from there.
