[freesolo]

sorry my sentences arent making sense anymore, my brain is fried, and i still have 3 tests before these scores come out.

the hardest part if i do horrible at it is telling freinds who say i'm "smart" its gonna be a big letdown for them =p. Oh god and the parents is gonna be a great one too, i think ill just let them open it up in the mail themselves lol.

You do know that the scores will be released online Thursday night/Friday (as in 2 days), right? 😕

I had a horrible MCAT nightmare-- it started out well, but then there was an evil twist. So, in my dream I check the MCAT site and I get a 37Q. I am astounded and happy, but somewhere in the back of my mind I can't help but think that there was a screw up with the computer. Then, I talk to my friend and she gets a 36. I then log on to the MCAT site to show her my score, and a hot pink background appears and my score is changed to a 24Q!! I woke up really angry-- cuz getting a 24Q sucks but at least there's really no roller coaster ride. But to think you're in the 99th percentile and to go to the 46th is harsh. Is anyone else having disturbing MCAT dreams?

I dreamed I got an 18. At least your dream was more optimistic!

 

[Sondra]

Aye aye...it's too hard to predict scores...I think to myself, "Wow, what if I actually did okay?" and the next minute, I'm like, "Yeah, right"...so no predictions for me either.

This is exactly how I have been thinking. One minute, I think I blew the test away, but most of the time, I don't believe I broke 24. I am just ready to get it over with. I will be okay with whatever happens. This was my first time. I will take it again even though I really don't want to.

I had a similar dream! I check my score online and I see a "33.5". At that point I should've realized it was dream. Anyway, I'm screaming that I got a 33... and then minutes later, I check back again, and it says 22... I'm like, what the f*ck! It was harsh.

I keep getting these panic attacks everytime I think about loggin in on the 14th ... I should have an ambulance ready.

 

[~CDN Pre-med~]

I had banned myself from SDN because everyone here makes me extremely nervous about my score....lol...

My dream score would allow me to make the highest MCAT cutoffs in Canadian med schools (ie: Queens University)... 👍
PS- 10
VR- 11
BS- 11
WS- Q

Realistically though, I don't know if I'll make the magic 32 because of PS... 👎
PS- 9
VR- 10
BS- 10
WS- Q

Who knows though? We'll find out soon enough...

That's the spirit!!!!!!!!!!

 

[thesmartazz]

Ok, I've been a wuss so far and have been afraid to speculate about my MCAT prospects... But anyway, I realized that this is silly and that it won't change what I'm going to get. So here goes... My target score was a 36:

PS: 13
VR: 11
BS: 12

As far as what I'll actually get, I'll just predict based on how I think each section went:

PS: 11-14 (usually my strongest for no intelligible reason... physics = yuck)
VR: 9-12 (who the heck knows... silly robotuna)
BS: 10-13 (i was rushed on this section on the test despite being a cell bio major...)

Hopefully, I'll score within each of those 3-point ranges... But good luck to everyone! AHHHHH!!!! (&c.)

 

[sweetstuff25]

i just wanna pass verbal reasoning. i beg of a 7.
verbal reasoning sucks

 

[SensesFail]

Same here. I know I did fine in the other sections (10+), but I'm begging for an 8 in VR! I had to guess a solid 10 questions 😳

 

[asteur]

OK my goal was 11, 11, 11 at the very beginning of the summer, when I first started studying.

On test day I felt pretty good but over the last few weeks my confidence has shot down so much! So I predict:

PS: 7-10
VR: 9-12
BS: 9-14 (yeah big range, I know, but I felt awesome about it, but my practices were 9-11 with one 12, so the odds of my 14 are slim )

So a total range of 25 - 36. I'll be happy with a 30, and will be very confused with anything between 27 and 29 as to whether or not I'll rewrite. 26 and lower, I will rewrite. Ugh.

 

[Kimka83]

Hmmm, here goes my prediction
PS: 11-13
VR: 7-12 (grrrr, I always got 12s on my practices, and I flopped!)
BS: 12-14

Please please please let me get a 35!

 

[NapeSpikes]

More predictions people! 😀 What have you got to lose? Scores may come out as early as tomorrow.

P.S. No editing your predictions, please. 😉

 

[CuttinEmUp]

Ok..well since nothing we say now is going to change the upcoming scores, here I go..

I will list the anticipated hopeful score followed by the more grim realistic expectation :


HOPEFUL :

PS 11

V 11

ws Q

BS 10

Total : 32Q


Realistically :

PS 8

V 8

ws P

BS 6

Total : 22P

Ugh! it makes me sick to my stomach just to type that last score. I have a bad feeling on this one 🙁 I'm so bi-polar right now. One second im thrilled cuz i feel like i rocked the test 👍 ..then the next im sick to my stomach thinking about how a score in the low-mid twenties is going to look online 👎

 

[Stratus2675]

After I left the test I thought:

PS: 8
V: 9
BS11

My practice tests were all around a 27 so I hope I get at least that.

Good luck everyone!!!!!

 

[MDhopeful023]

hmm, ill be horribly realistic:
PS -5
BS -7
VR -9

I really doubt you'll get that score... you've worked pretty hard

 

[DentalGal]

No WAY am I going to predict my scores. I'm pretty superstitious - no jinxing here. I can't even come up with any anyway. I had a good feeling about it, but that was about it.

 

[gozeemer]

I've read the cards and studied the stars,

If i get a 32 you will see me on CNN---Boy Dances on Street Wildly

 

[gozeemer]

i just wanna pass verbal reasoning. i beg of a 7.
verbal reasoning sucks

I couldnt agree more...when my mom asked how I did in verbal I said..."Its between a 4 and 14" lol...and im not joking, i have no clue, that section was wild on CG i think it was?

 

[stoleyerscrubz]

I want to erase Audio Osmosis from my Mp3 player, sell all of my MCAT material, and click on my outlook express that the tasks of "MCAT" is complete.

 

[speranza]

I know it won't make any difference to post a prediction but I just can't do it. I just hope that I won't be terribly disappointed when scores come out.

 

[frany584]

i dont think i can make a prediction either. i would like to think i did well but being the pessimist i am, it is impossible for me to think i did decent on this test 🙁

 

[IAMS]

Think of the first time you sat down to write your personal statement, think of all the turmoil and the anguish about your experiences and how to put them on paper... thinking about my MCAT performance was much the same...

Then I said to hell with it, I am going to put this out of my mind and decide for myself how well I did - First, I thought of all the positives, that I stayed mostly on track - and my hopes were bright. Then I thought of the instances that threw me, the oddball bio passages and the confusing verbal questions.. and did I make sense on the written..

I believe pretty strongly its best to decide in your mind the positives and the minuses before you get the mostly arbitraty score - there is always room for improvement for everyone, but your self-evaluation is most important.

There's one day left, more than 27 hours before scores are known for sure, are you going to sit and be told how you performed, or do you indeed have something to say about it? Go on, predict it!

Come on, 32Q!!!!!

i love it--i'm gonna try to focus on all the stuff i know i did right as i'm waiting for my score

 

[NapeSpikes]

Bump! For last minute predictions (or, if you must, edits of previous predictions).

 

[sweetstuff25]

plllzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

[frany584]

last minute prediction although i said i wouldnt, the queasy feeling in the pit of my stomach indicates it will be ~24, which sucks for me.... 🙁

 

[NapeSpikes]

👎 for the mcat

 

[HunterGatherer]

didn't finish PS so I'm hoping for:
P7+ B10+ V10+

That PS curve scares me.

 

[QRSAlpha]

Hopefully. . .

PS 11, VR 9, BS 10

In reality. . .

PS 9, VR 8, BS 10

 

[CoffeeCat]

Predictions:

Psci: 8 (hope I'm wrong on this one)
Bio: 12 (hope I'm right on this one)
Verbal: 11
Writing: Q

Total: 31Q

My hope is that other sections will make up for PSci

Hey, I guessed my exact score, but I got an extra point in PS and 1 less in verbal 🙂

 

[IAMS]

Hey CoffeeCat - Congratulations!

I also got my prediction pretty close - I just did better in physics than I thought. Good luck to everyone, best hopes to you!

 

[Willow]

OK, I'll play. Nothing can change our scores now.

PS: 7 (I'm praying for 9 here, but I doubt it)
VR: 11
BS: 12
WS: P

Total: 30P

ACTUAL

PS: 8
VR: 12
BS: 11
WS: N <--- what the hell?
