how many of you have already submitted your applications?? i'm totally done with mine but i'm too scared to actually BE DONE.... if that makes sense. i've had a lot of people read my essay, but no one has looked over the entire thing (like work/activities) and i'm worried that i'll pay for it and submit, then realize that i missed one thing that means my application won't go through. and i'm scared that i'll end up with a crazy bad mcat and have no chance of getting in.

or i could just be thinking of every possible scenario of things that could go wrong and making myself crazy 🙂

so i guess this was really just asking if i should be sending in my application now, or waiting?

if you haven't hit submit already, might as well just wait until tomorrow and see if your score is competitive

I looked over my application dozens of times over Memorial Day weekend and finally pushed the "Submit" button with two hands (one hand refused to do it).

Then I looked over the app again and saw that one of my classes was spelled "Algenbra".

Go ahead and push the submit. Any mistake you make will be less than the mistake of missing the early interviews.

I don't want to find out the scores 🙁 NOOOOO. I like being in denial becaues i still have hope to cling on to. Once they come out and i see my 25 it will be back to the library. I have been really ADD since the last test so i just ran out of ways to focus. Also i don't know how else to study for it 🙁.

i'm in the same boat... i'm certain i'll have to retake due to the verbal (and consequently, the bio), and I just have no idea how to re-approach this thing...

yeah same here. im going to give myself a few months break and then start studying again in november maybe. i took a princeton review class this past time, so i'm going to use the berkeley review books and take a couple upper div bio classes... and review my ochem notes and know them like the back of my hand. and then do the berkeley review practice tests and the AAMCs again if I don't remember them from the first time. at least thats what the plan is for now 👍

Thought I would join the club officially instead of just visiting.

Good luck today everyone! We made it this far!

I'm on the fence about my score but I'm thinking I'm going to have to wait til next year to apply. I studied with Kaplan and my practice tests ranged from 6-9 in each section. I'm just a horrible test taker, but I'll be happy with a 27.

Hang in there! It's almost time. 🙂

I really really hope verbal didn't go as bad as i think it did! :scared:

PS: How many people are going to check here to see that scores have been posted first.. before they officially check? I think I will.

I think I'll end up checking both.

Doesn't help that I can check all day...I actually wish I didn't have computer access so it wouldn't be as nerve-racking.

Those of you who took the test in the afternoon: am I remembering correctly that much of the content was based directly off the passages (especially PS) and there wasn't as much recalling equations/facts/etc from memory as on practice exams? Also, verbal had some scary sections?

Its been a long month of not thinking about school or the test at all and I completely forgot everything exam related. I also don't want to scroll through this thread for my answer.

My thoughts exactly.
But I guess it's better to be here with some distraction than home biting my nails at the computer for hours.


I have a 3 hour long meeting this afternoon and I think it's going to be torture to keep refreshing my phone every 5 seconds.

haha good luck with that meeting...... it would be funny to see you start jumping around the room celebrating after seeing your score on your phone

I have to give a lab presentation at 12:00 MST. If my score is good I would like to have it beforehand so I'm in a good mood for the presentation. If it's bad, I hope it comes out later so I don't have to give my presentation with a demeanor of utter defeat and disappointment.

Maybe I should check my score in the middle of the presentation and let everyone witness my reaction for their amusement!

Don't stress everyone! You can do it!

It's getting closer and closer.
Pretty soon the waiting will be over.

At least we can keep each other company during the agony.

Sending good luck your way!!

Haha I wish i had that kind of power.. I am trying to keep my mind off of it, but I keep remembering how badly I felt about the test when I took it..

I would be soo happy with 30+, anything not to retake!

I'm at work, trying to prepare for a presentation in 2 hours, but all I can think about is what if my score sucks, I'm gonna be so pissed because I worked so hard, and the thought of studying again repulses me. I just hope we get scores soon so I can focus on work.

I took mine 5/27, so I'll be in your position next Tuesday. Although I'm already about to poop my pants every 5 seconds. Ahhhhh
