In 48 hours we'll know... Hope everyone is holding up!

I don't think I posted a prediction yet, so here goes...

PS: 12-13
VR: 8-10
BS: 11-13
Total: 31-36

I didn't feel too bad leaving the test so I'm hoping for something on the higher end, but who knows. It's such a toss up.

Also jealous of everyone's gift cards haha. I started the trial section thinking, "this shouldn't be too bad right?" I saw the first biochemistry passage and was like "f*** this," answered randomly and went home. My brain refused to function anymore :dead:

Oh no I couldn't do that.... I can't spend more money on study materials in case I have to study again and retake! I'm saving my gift card until I get the score... Can go to ways. More mcat books or a pair of shoes! Whoo!

I'll be thousands of feet up in the sky flying from Los angeles to NYC... Finally get to see the 9/11 museum that I've been wanting to see ever since it was planned!

I'm so so freaking nervous. I don't know how I'm gonna look at the score. I'm thinking about putting a paper on the screen and slowly moving it, one score by one.... I don't know if that'll help. Maybe I should someone else look at it first?!

Ahhhh!!!!!

I am having my cousin look at my score when it comes out a few hours before I look at it. I told him not to tell me ANYTHING other than inform me that he looked at it. IDK what the purpose of that is but it makes me feel more prepared LOL

I was thinking of doing the paper thing too. I'm so terrified but I can't decide if it's worse to see the total, or individual sections first
Already planning on so little sleep tonight

"You answered 44% of questions correctly on the Trial Section which puts you in the top half as compared to others who received the same Trial Section questions as you."

Seems like everyone here scored somewhere in the 40% range for the trial section. >.> I did not study for the trial at all, did anyone else study for it and how did you do?

MCAT scores tomorrow... not sure how I feel right now.....

August 15th test taker here, when you peoples post your score can you do us peoples waiting for our scores a favour and post the percentile along with your scores? I know each test is curved differently but can help ease some of our broken minds from thinking we absolutely bombed it

I have A+P at 2pm-320pm CST and A+P lab from 4p-6p CST. I will either look at the score after A+P lecture or take a bathroom break in the middle to see if scores are released. So nervous!

I am extremely nervous, but I know at this point it is completely out of my hands. I will just take the score and work with it for this app cycle, and sign up for the retake if absolutely necessary. I will retake under a 30.

~~~Final Prediction~~~
PS: 9-12 best guess: 11
VR: 8-12 best guess: 10
BS: 9-12 best guess: 11

Low Score: 29 somehow
Best Guess: ~32 (AAMC 10-11 were both 29 and AAMC 9 was a 34, but I felt that I performed well on the 8/2 test...however I like literally always feel that way too though!)
High end: 35

Unhappy and Retake: <30
Unhappy and No Retake: 30
Neutral/Unhappy: 31
Content: 32
Happy: 33+
Dream: 35+

Just wanted to say good luck to all of you guys. Instead of sitting here and worrying about your score, do yourself a favor and go do something that you enjoy or something that can distract you. Time passes by regardless and the results are going to be the same, whether you sit here and torture yourself, or help yourself pass these last few hours. Please don't torture yourself.

I will be in class from 3-4:30, so I'm deciding whether I should check in class or not... May be a bad idea... Might as well though because I won't be able to concentrate at all.

Don't forget to use this format when posting scores:

FL AAMC Average: xx
Post-test expected score: xx
(optional) HR immediately before checking: xx
Actual Score: ( PS / V / BS) xx

At this point, we are less than two hours away. Unfortunately for me, I will not be able to check until 330 LOL.

I thought that the release of MCAT grades might coincide with the time that AAMC disbursed trial section gift cards. That thought was incorrect. I will now join the legion of refreshers. Good luck all. Hopefully they release them soon to put us out of our collective anxiety -- one way or the other.
