Hi All,
I took my MCAT June 1st and I got: chem/cars/bio/psych (130/122/129/128)
total: 509
This is very surprising to me because these are my practice exam scores:
AAMC FL1 510 (128/126/128/128)
AAMC FL2 509 (128/125/128/128)
AAMC FL3 512 (130/125/130/127)
AAMC FL4 511 (130/125/129/127)
I emailed multiple medical schools and they said I wouldn't have any chance of acceptance even with my 4.00 GPA in BME (BS & MS), high research experience (1 Co-Author publication and 1 First author publication soon)
I registered for a new MCAT on September 1st to still have a chance at this cycle (2 deans recommended me to do that). My goals are to get into NJMS or RWJ.
My recent Next Step MCAT Scores from the past 3 weeks are:
FL1: 513 (130/126/128/129)
FL2: 513 (129/126/129/129)
FL3: 510 (129/125/129/127)
FL4: 510 (128/125/129/128)
I have been reading online that Next step CARS is not representative of the actual MCAT which scares me. The lower scores are actually inflated while the higher scores are deflated. CARS has always been my kryptonite.
Any advice on what I should do? I think I can improve my psych scores a bit my doing some more review. I cant say I feel much more prepared than I did when I took the MCAT originally. I work full time in industry to pay off my college debt.
Thanks!
