Old MCAT Exams (Before 1991)

Hello. I was thinking about the MCAT 2015 when my mind jutted toward thinking about the old MCAT exams given between 1977-1991. These are the MCAT exams that our mentors (40s and beyond took) It's weird to hear them talk about Kaplan etc. just like we do. Well, I think it would be cool to check out an old exam. Are they available? Thanks.

I don't want to be an ass here but I'm going to anyway - read a book, marvel at nature, fall in love. Seriously, you only live once, make good use of your recreational time.

You might want to try the archives section of your medical school library. I remember coming across some old mcat stuff from the late 70's at University of Arizona COM one time. Still a long shot, but worth looking into if you really want to see them.

Bro, if you wanted to make use of your time you wouldn't be on a premedical forum. Fall back with the nonsense young one.

It would be cool to see an older MCAT to grasp how medical education has evolved over time. As medical professionals we will be responsible in developing the next MCAT in a few decades so its only right to see how far we've come.

I once found a Kaplan review book in a medical library from 1997. It had the exact same practice tests as the book I bought in 2011. Spend some time on the national archives website learning about WW2 instead.

I also think it would be cool. Sometimes I have patients returning after being treated approximately 40 years ago and I take a look at the old (now archaic) treatment plans and their treatment fields very interesting.

A book from 1997 is not relevant because all MCAT exams from 1991-2015 are identical.

The title of the thread is pre-1991 MCAT.
