Hi I have already registered for Aug MCAT this year but I don't think I'm prepared for the exam at all. Even if I study hard enough over this summer, I doubt my chances to get good good grades on MCAT. Espcially I'm very concerned with verbal reasoning part.
English is my 2nd language so it takes pretty longer time to read passages and solve problems. For the first time I took verbal reasoning, it took about 3hours to finish the exam and I got 7 on the verbal.
I wasn't too much frustrated how I performed it because I knew I can improve the score at some point. But is it possible to get at least 8 or 9 (verbal) on this Aug MCAT if I do many practice exams and spend lots of time reading Time / U.S. News magazines for 4mons until the exam? I am also enrolled at Kaplan this summer and retaking Chem and Organic this summmer as a post-bacc.
However, I'm not applying medical school this year. For this Aug MCAT score, I'm applying School of Public Health(MPH) for the spring semester. I want to go to graduate school before I apply to med school due to my low stat. For now, I'm just very worried about MCAT score for graduate school and I realize that the students who get into Master program of public health also have high stats.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
