If you have taken more than a full course load, will your lowest mark be dropped? I have taken 15.5 credits in 3 years and 15 credits is considered a 'full course load' so will 0.5 credits be dropped. If this is so, will my lowest grade be dropped? I appreciate your help.

Regards,

Regardless of what your university does, AMCAS will include all your coursework credit. AMCAS never drops anything.

Is it hard to get a 35+ on the MCAT? I am in life science, so I think I have the background to potentially score really high... is there a site that tests your "MCAT'bility." I hear people talking about getting a practice mark on the MCAT without actually doing it, but how is that possible?

There is a free practice MCAT linked to from this site: https://services.aamc.org/Publicatio...179&prv_id=214 .

But it is wise to do multiple practice tests, scoring repeatedly in your target range, before taking the actual test. Getting a 35+ is very difficult.
