Hi,

So, I started my content review for the MCAT a few months back with Kaplan, and I am signed up to take the MCAT June 2nd (about 17 days from now), and I just took my 2nd Kaplan practice exam and scored a 493. I was shocked because this score was lower than my first score (495) as I had gone down in all the categories by 1 or 2 points besides Chem/Phys. Were any of you in this kind of a rough spot who were able to get out it? Any advice moving forward.

I am planning on taking my next practice exam this upcoming Tuesday.

Thanks.

I took three Kaplan tests with 503, 507, and 506 respectively. Got an 86.5% on the AAMC unscored and 514 on the scored. Kaplan does a horrible job at predicting your actual score. I would say stop taking Kaplan and start taking AAMC material

About how much did you get correct percentage wise per section on each of your Kaplan FLs?

The one I got 507 on I got 71% 75% 85% and 64% (my p/s content was super weak towards the beginning) which was a 127 126 128 126 overall.

Thanks man. I'd be confident if I was scoring 505+ on Kaplan FLs...good work

@Wolfpack93 j/w, do you think Kaplan was useful at all in terms of concept review or practice?

Yeah I think its decent in physics and bio and would recommend doing them if you have them. I would advise taking them sooner rather than later so you can focus on official AAMC stuff closer to the real MCAT
