I know... I have an ominous feeling...

 

[Ian1223]

I just called AAMC, they said there would be no delays.

please post ur scores when u find out!!!!! im anxious.

gooooood luck guys!!! 😱

Wow, I wish I had your self-control... good luck to you too.

 

[howdy2u]

I'm gonna barf 😱

 

[Ironie]

serious on the barfing... i'm thinking it's probably a good idea to drive home from work before checking...

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

Argh! The...suspense!

 

[utahjazz]

I'm gonna barf 😱

Ha, hopefully it will be over soon...

I made plans for this evening so I will be forced to get out of the house if it goes poorly...

 

[Ironie]

hahaha... what would we all do without this site?

I know! I can't imagine the pre-internet days. Poor people had to suffer alone or with actual friends. 🙂

MCAT got me staring at one page, while my stomach turns upside down. I'm sure I will probably end up throwing up the Kung Pow chicken and General Tso I had for lunch. I should prolly go back to the aug 20th thread since those are my peeps anyways

P.S My fortune cookie said nothing about MCAT

 

[Tourterm]

Be more productive and less neurotic? 😉

 

[Ian1223]

Still not up yet...

 

[utahjazz]

Still not up yet...

I think the August 14th score delay was announced at a couple minutes before 5, so we should find out soon...

 

[Ian1223]

The August 6th score delay was announced around 5:15.

No rest for us... ever.

 

[Ironie]

did they post the aug 9 results on time?

 

[utahjazz]

The August 6th score delay was announced around 5:15.

True. And I'm tired of looking at my Aug. 6th score everytime I check MCAT THx. I hope it gets replaced by a prettier score. 🙂

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

:x :x!!

 

[Meetchy]

omg... 2 PM PST

 

[MCATMAN45]

I am going insane. I've already applied but haven't filed all my secondaries. This will make or break my '08 admission

 

[lilmuck03]

Are we sure this is EST?

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

Yup!

 

[utahjazz]

Are we sure this is EST?

Yup.

I understand that they have delays, etc. but it's just plain rude to continually give no notice of the delays beforehand. They have to know prior to 5 PM that the scores won't be ready.

 

[Ironie]

I'm pretty sure they are out there reading this and laughing at our misery.

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

My thoughts exactly!

 

[lsmith55uf]

I'm dying. Why the hell aren't they up yet? I'm writing my congressman...

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

I say no delays...one of you JUST called!

 

[FutureeMD]

I am trying to do my homework, but my eyes are getting watery...i feel like i should head to the bathroom....just tell me my score and lets get this over with...i cant focus. This is truly cruel and unusual

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

Haha, we're finally catching up to some of the other posts!

 

[utahjazz]

I say no delays...one of you JUST called!

Unless they don't keep the people answering the phones updated on the delays. Which wouldn't surprise me.

 

[okie1001]

I must say clicking the 'refresh' button again and again is depressing me

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

My opinion:

date of test: Aug. 16th
30 days later: Sep. 16th
Today's "expected" release: Sep. 19th

There's ALREADY a built-in three day delay!!

 

[howdy2u]

I'm about to lose my f-ing mind...come on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yeah, seriously!!! get your act together, people!!!

 

[RedSox1982]

DAMMIT!!!! I timed it perfectly! I watched all of the first disc of Curb Your Enthusiasm so that it would end a few minutes after 5. Well now it's done... it's after 5... and NO SCORES!

 

[lilmuck03]

How do you know it is EST? I keep looking for where it says that, but I'm coming up with nothing.

 

[lsmith55uf]

Wow, I am really losing it. Why why why....post the scorrrresssss!!!

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

It's EST because of 1) other score releases and 2) I think that's where the AAMC headquarters are (NJ?).

 

[lilmuck03]

Is there a possibility that our scores could be posted at 5:00 in the time zone we took the test? Any east coast people still waiting for scores?

 

[utahjazz]

No. The AAMC does everything on East coast time. It says so on the exam/score release timetable. I think they are in DC.

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

Not a possibility...still waiting from East Coast...it's 5:15, time to announce delays?

 

[lsmith55uf]

No, I took it in SC, which is EST, and I'm waiting like the rest. I would guess they release them all at the same time

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

Uh-oh, my Internet signal is weakening...with my luck it'll blow as soon as the scores come out!

 

[lsmith55uf]

No delays announced? What the helll?

 

[ArtemisEntreri]

I think this is part of the test...whoever dies from anxiety is dropped from premed...

 

[lsmith55uf]

Awesome. I guess I'm screwed, cuz I'm almost there...

 

[MamadP]

I think they should have a TV special "Inside the AAMC" and really show us what those geniuses do all day. Doesnt the computer make the curve?? All they have to do is press the "release scores" button...

I already got my scores, but i feel your pain. My Aug 6th scores were delayed...


Good luck to all!

 

[gilbertjgreen]

PS: 11
VR: 10
BS: 10
WR: R

So happy!! I just jumped up and down like a little girl with my wife for about 5 minutes! Good luck to all!
