I might as well get one started. I'm taking it in August but prepping now! Haven't seen my Sciences in YEARS so I'm starting early. Join as you will.

I setup a script to refresh the Twitter page every 5 seconds, and email/text me if it finds "8/27 #MCATday, scores have been released!"

How's that for neurotic?

I was bored by your neuroticism until I saw that it said "every 5 seconds" instead of "every 5 minutes," like I originally thought. Impressive indeed.

Yes I have about 3 exams next week. and a lot of HW, but the surge of adrenaline is really inhibiting all my neuronal learning pathways.

Well, off to class. I forget my AAMC username and password so it looks like I am SOL as far as checking it when I should be paying attention to lecture.

Who else feels they did worse and worse as the release time gets closer. I studied 4 months avg 10 hours a day everyday. Except for the 4th of July lol. I'll be so upset when I see I got like a 26 lol

With all honesty I studied for 11 weeks 3 hours a day. Just did 2 Full Full Length (with english and proper timing), so I am expecting the worse. But hopefully double digits in PS BS.

Yeah me too on the feeling worse and worse about it. Also studied for 4 months, not 10 hours a day though, just in most of my free time.

Test Date: 8/27/14
Time: 1 pm
FL AAMC Average: 30s (only did the PS and BS sections with infinite breaks between them )
AAMC 10-11 Avg.: 14/07/14
Post-test expected score: 12/6/12
Actual Score (PS/V/BS): 14/09/12

May I add that in the Med Schools in my country they only look for the Ps and Bs and take the Verbal scores of the English courses. So I couldn't care less about the Verbal, But ill take that lol.


May I comment I only did AAMC 11 and Kaplan 10 under test conditions. (with same 10min breaks and with english) so my score i beyond perfect for me. I am out of words. I hoped for better in the BS surely. If anyone needs help I will try to get back to the site these few days. So message me.

AAMC avg: 36.000 median scores(13 10 13)
Actual: 35 (13:09:13)

Like itsthat1guy, was hoping for a 36, I am satisfied with a 35. I am slightly disappointed with that VR score (I've never scored below 10 before on any AAMC), but I don't think it's crippling.

Edit: I put a colon in front of a parenthesis and the site thought it was a frowny

I'm thinking I'll be one of those people who does bad. I studied my butt off and know I couldn't have done any more studying. I just feel like nerves may have effed my score. I was averaging around 35 by the end. Thinking I go in the 20s 🙁

I've been lurking on this thread a long time now and am so happy that everybody here seemed to score close to their averages! I have no idea what happened here and am so disappointed to be an outlier. I never scored below a 10 on verbal in my practice AAMC's and was usually scoring 12-13's. I honestly felt that I hit wayyy below my average for physics on the actual exam and that I got around an 11 for BS. Verbal felt pretty normal. Goes to show you never can tell. Luckily I already have a retake booked in January, I'm just pretty bummed that I can't cancel it.

Actual Score (PS/V/BS): 11/10/11 for a 32.

Not happy with the verbal considering it was below my average, I definitely panicked in the section. I'll be getting a second score back on Oct 7th. But overall this score is just slightly below the average score accepted at the medical school I'm applying, so I'm satisfied with how it went and I think I've got a pretty good shot at getting into medical school.
