Hi everyone,

Given the effect of the whole COVID-19 situation on the MCAT testing, have the Australian MD schools released any updates regarding flexibility for score deadlines?

Most of the schools need the MCAT taken within 3 years of matriculation (so for 2021 entry --> Need a 2018 test score), and I have a 2017 MCAT test score. I miss the cut for a lot of the schools except Monash (which doesn't need an MCAT), and was wondering if anyone had any information from the schools about previous test scores or accommodating testing, which will very likely be pushed back until end of June in a best case scenario.

Thanks in advance!
