Hey y'all.
I just finished my junior year and will be applying at the end of the next school year. This summer I am taking the MCAT. I just registered for a date in mid-August, since seats were filling up fast, and I discovered that the MCAT will be shortened from 7 hours 30 minutes seated time to 5 hours 45 minutes. Would this affect how adcoms view scores from these dates? No, right?
Theoretically, scores on this version should reflect what students would have obtained on the full test, so there shouldn't be any issues?
I was just curious because it's not like I have to take the MCAT in August, but this was my plan all along and it would be most convenient for me to do it then. Also strange that my exam time is 6 PM as opposed to the traditional 6:30 AM. Also, we are required to wear a face mask throughout the exam. Crazy stuff!!
