Random (potentially stupid) question

As I'm reading through various threads, I keep seeing stuff like "AAMC 5R" and "AAMC 5 CBT". What is the difference between all these and "AAMC 5"?

aamc R exams are the old paper versions of the aamc full lengths -- they are much longer than the new mcat which is the CBT version...aamc 5R and aamc5 CBT is the same thing except that aamc5R is longer in time and has more passages and is paper based -- CBT stands for combuter based test

Ah, thank you, I suspected that the old length/new length had something to do with it. I just couldn't tease out the initials. Thanks!
