Not that I took the MCAT or anything, this past August, but just because I feel like you all should have a thread like the one Crazy Cav had for us in April..........

Here it is, your official Countdown thread...................

As of now, you have 54 days, 3 hours, and 1 minute left til score release..........

Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀 😀: 😀 :luck: :luck:
 
Well my friends, in a few more days you'll have only 3 weeks left to go. GOOOOOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀 😀

according to the countdown, there's still 26 days and 10 hours left...😕

yea man, what's up with that?

maybe the countdown is counting exactly 60 days (i.e. october 20) instead of october 18 like gujudoc is predicting.
 
I want my damn score NOW! NOW NOW NOW NOW!!!!!

Sorry, had to get that out of my system. Now I'm good for another day or two...

Actually, I did so amazingly well that they're giving me extra credit, I'll have the world's first score of 51 Z.

A man can dream, can't he? 😀

oh!!! I misspelled... Women!!!! just kidding that Men are not allowed to dream only women are,,,, :laugh:
 
Wow, I just realized that the scores are gonna come out before the NBA season even begins! So it's a lot closer than we think! Soon we'll be busy with midterms and everything, and Oct. 18 will be here in no time!
 
richarms said:
Yeah, there goes your "T"! 😀

oh!!! I don't have a "T" um.. I am sad!!!
Oh!! No!!! I really think that it is almost impossible to get a T it is the 45T that never is possible, and it's only a dream....

Dream that is to the counting down to the MCAT

NBA would totally not be enjoyable if the MCAT scores not come out good for until SOME time though. :laugh:

(i was gonna say the same thing the last person said, but he beat me to it!)
 
scentimint said:
oh my, i hope you didn't write that on your writing sample prompt! 😀


Wimmen is a commonly used SDN and rSDN way of saying women. I think its funny when people write it that way.

ahh, i see, i see. it's much better than womyn (some females who don't want to be associated with males write it that way).

I made a javascript countdown timer set to Oct 18 at 10pm for your down-to-the-second viewing pleasures. Autorefreshes every 10 seconds. Too lazy to do anything more sophisticated, but fell free to improve on it.

Just quoting this to bring it to the last page.

Oh and hey peepz,

I should let you know that you will have exactly 3 weeks left when 12 AM hits tonight.

I agree!!!
 
scentimint said:
Awesome! but that's still 3 weeks...jeez.


But at least you are now past the half way point. One more week, and you'll be at the 3/4 of the time passed mark. 😀

:luck: :luck:
 
scentimint said:

Three weeks draws the line for the Reality and Dreaming… so Just to be sure…. 3 weeks is nothing for the works that we have done for the MCAT and have been putting an enormous effort to get to where we are.

Just three weeks till the reality… and we all got the free will to do depending on how the MCAT scores arrive.
 
Ahhhaa!!! I just cure myself from the sickness when I found the real medicine......... :idea: :idea: :laugh: :laugh:
 
I'm confused; the countdown says "24 days", than how can it be three weeks from this coming midnight? Tomorrow is our five-week anniversery, but I thought it took 60 days, not 8 weeks.

Whatever. Let's just simplify this by giving us our scores now.
 
I hope I score well on the MCAT so I can go through my list of SDN subscribed threads and clear them out for med school. I'm at 645 threads now.
 
Anybody plan on having someone else read your scores to you while they hold a gun? I'll probably tell one of my friends to start with the tens digit, and if it is a "1," then by all means, please take me out of my misery. If the tens digit is a "2," then don't shoot me, but cock the hammer back and slowly read the ones digit. If the tens digit is a "3," or by the grace of God, a "4," then blaze one to the air because it's party time for the next couple of weeks 😀 That's my strategy, now I just have to find a good enough friend willing to go through with it. :laugh:

Aahha!!! precious moments are coming up in some weeks... Oh!! I love the happy thoughts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
WhatUpDoc!, that's just plain scary. When I checked my scores this past June and saw that they were exactly the same as my previous August's scores, I didn't want to shoot myself. I wanted to shoot the people who come up with this test, and who seem to make sure that you get the test form with all the stuff on it that you don't know! 😉

I hope you weren't serious, but just in case, we're here if you need any support. We'll all be here the night scores come out just as scared and worried as you are, and we'll get through it together. Some of us will do spectacularly, others will do just fine, and some will be below their expectations (that's me!). But there's always more studying and another test administration. At least when the test is fully computerized and offered more than twice a year we'll have more times to take it without putting our apps off for a year.

Good luck! We're on the downward side!
 
wow, some people get reeeeeally serious about this stuff! i'm certainly worried/anxious/etc, but definitely not thinking about guns...

except maybe my biceps. 😀
 
I am not feeling good!!! My head hurts and I have a sever cough and fever. I know this the pre warning of the upcoming bad results for the MCAT scores… Um… 🙁 🙁

Btw, what is biceps?? I forgot that since I took the August MCAT and it’s been long like 30 some days…oh!! What if I really did badly on the August MCAT.... got to go get ready for the April one… oh!!! I can’t find my notes!!!! 😀 😀 😀

Wow, time moves fast.


It is just that sometimes we move rally slow that it seems like that time is moving really fast!!!!😉 < sigh> about the Aug Mcat scores!!!! 🙁 🙁 🙁 🙁

Thanks for being concerned 🙂 ... but honestly... I was sooooo far from being serious (didn't the emoticons give it away 😛 ?). But yeah, it'd probably be wise to stay glued to this thread on score day... you know, just to further ensure my safety! Btw... I'm too lazy to look at earlier posts in regard to this question, but are we looking at around the 15th or the 16th of Oct, or some time around the 20th? Oct. is my B-day month so I'm just trying to see if "A higher MCAT score!!!" will be my response to "What do you want for your Birthday?"

October 18th at 10pm to October 19th some time is the time frame when scores will come out most likely. The 18th is the 59th night, and it usually comes out the night before at around 10pm.

I bet you are way too younger than me!!! I thought is even scary to make me feel OLDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD….
But I hope you get a good score to celebrate your birthday with. :luck: :luck: :luck:

oh!! Lord!!! What have happed to Guju, where is the hyper ness, where are your smiles and happy images. God!! Did you get so much busy with college?? Mee too!!!
 
You know, I'm sitting here busting my chops to get these secondaries all perfect, fine-combing my essays, trying to take the "perfect picture" to attach, and trying to get stuff submitted promptly. And then it rolls across my mind, "what if all this work is to waste?" I just hate the thought that my MCAT score could turn everything upside-down if it is low enough. All the long nights of studying... the careful selection of extracurriculars, the planned solicitation of LORs, and now the "white-glove treatement" of my secondaries.... all this could be negated by a siimple test score. I don't know, it's not like I'm freakin about it. Just something in the back of my head... one of those twilight zone possibilities. 🙁
