I too have the stress of doing well because I'm also applying this cycle. So by no means am I trying to imply that you all aren't justified. However when you want something so badly, you'll do everything in your will power to achieve it, and you won't hesitate dedicating more time of your life to get there. I wish you all the best of luck!

I am guessing it is today. The old 10.8 date was probably tentative.

My heart literally jumped out my chest when I thought scores were being released today. That was a little evil.

Phew. Either way, less than 24 hours before we're expected to know our scores... I almost want more time, just to be able to live in blissful ignorance 😉

They're being released at 3:10 tomorrow!? :scared:
I'm finding out right after my last class tomorrow...

I'm extremely freaked out right now since it felt like I was slapped across the face multiple times during the exam since I felt it was harder than AAMC 10 & 11.

3:10pm Eastern seems to be the time the last few scores have been released, give or take. By this time tomorrow there'll be no more guessing... yikes!

anyone feel like their score can range anywhere from 25 to 35? The test went so fast - I still can't really get a feel for how I did. I will either be crushed or elated tomorrow afternoon.

I have absolutely no idea where my score is going to end up. Did I get the questions I guessed on right? Were the passages I had trouble with experimental? And of course- what's the scale like???

And I need to know what my score is, this wait is killing me. I'm trying to study for exams and every five seconds I think about the mcat.

Me! I'm preparing to celebrate/console myself by buying ice cream, before looking at my score. No matter the result, ice cream will be had.

Yes. Although my range is shifted up by a few points but yes. I feel like I couldn't gauge how I did and as a result, my predicted score range is extremely wide. :scared:

Awe man. I was smiling while reading these last few pages.. I thought only I was slapped in the face with nerves these past days. To those of us with jobs and/or school and/or families in the house, the last month really flew by.. but it feels like so much has happened since then- just a mere ~30 days ago. Good luck to all the lucky 9/7'ers and I wish you all the best!! 30+! Let's go!!

Words can't describe how scared I am about my vr score. I've already decided to wait for people on sdn to post their scores first before I check myself. In fact, I'm debating whether to get someone to check for me....I don't think I even want to know now....
Btw, is there any special stress-less way to check your score? I.e. Covering the screen with a piece of paper and reveal one section at a time; spin around for a minute before checking. Things like that.

You could always take the advent calender approach by covering your screen with the front side of a cereal box and cutting out little flaps so you can look at one section at a time...I mean, so I've heard😀

Google images related to "MCAT Thx" to see how the scores are displayed, it looks like they would be in one row.

I finally realized why the CollegeBoard releases the SAT scores so early in the morning.
These last few hours before the release time are EXCRUTIATING. :scared:

Just found out I'm being furloughed in two weeks if things haven't changed, had to move out of our house and sell it, wife is pregnant and not doing very well, etc. Needless to say I can't have any more bad news right now - PLEASE let my score be "good enough"!!!

Ahh! Good luck to all. So hard to focus and study for my quiz later today! Is everyone expecting them to be up around 4 pm EST / 3 pm CDT? I think that's around the time they came out last time..

3:07 Eastern on the dot during the last 2 weeks. At least that's when they posted about it on Twitter

*Possible Offensive Post Warning. No Harm Intended*

I'm not trying to intentionally be insensitive or appear antisemitic but I honestly think I feel the same level of anxiety about these scores as those standing in line during the holocaust. (Similar in that a bad score could potentially derail my life goals/plan). I realize we can study more and retake the exam so all hope is not lost but still, the magnitude of the test can't be discounted.

Wow. Worst analogy ever. Maybe you should sit the next play out.

OCD is an understatement. Insane is more like it. I mean I am in class right now and I am watching the time on my phone right now.

A lot of people here have spent weeks/months studying for this test full time. It would be abnormal to be nonchalant about it
