I'm getting a little discouraged by my predicted scores/percent correct on practice tests, but I'm very early on in my studying. I'm wondering where people started out vs where they ended up. What were your predicted scores/percent correct like at the beginning of studying for the MCAT? If you've taken the exam, how did your score compare?

Third Party FLs are used to close gaps and endurance. AAMC Tests (AAMC FL1/FL2 and unscored) are the most predictive of how you will do on test day. However, there's a general consensus that the unscored test is the easiest
 
Took a diagnostic early on, got a 500.
Took AAMC FL 1 after finishing content review, got a 513
Took the real thing after 2 months of part time practice, got a 524
 
started with TPR free test (502) then took the NS 1-5 tests and improved to a 508.
last two weeks before the Test Date AAMC FL1 513 FL2 516
