Members do not see this ad.

so if you take the mcat in a sept test date you are considered generally late and its recommended you apply next cycle. But then you just waste a year of mcat scores because they are only VALID for two years right?
or am i getting things mixed up 😕

Your MCAT score is valid for up to three years, but some schools only accept scores that are up to two years old. Check with the particular schools you are interested in for a definitive answer of the maximum age of valid MCAT scores. In any event, all scores, including expired scores, are visible to admissions committees.

i have the msar and it lists it but i was just wondering. It would seem like a waste to go on for some time and not use your scores...idk maybe its just me
