The Official April 2016 MCAT Thread

[drbeat14]

April Fool's you're taking the MCAT! Worst prank ever?! No really, as a serial delayer, I absolutely must take this thing on this day before application submissions this upcoming cycle in 2016. So I thought I would go ahead and start the official thread. Never to early to start an official support/study group.

close, it's from a recent interview with bridman, where he basically tells a radio station to put some respect on his name lol

Haven't seen it yet. If you get a chance YouTube the hodgetwins, good way to waste some time.

 

[Petrichor1]

isn't it suppose to be that the scores show up by 5pm but not at? Funny how the entire day is almost done and you guys' scores haven't been posted. Really anxious about my time.

 

[drgonzo1971]

Do you take a shot every time you hit refresh?

Hahaha, not there yet, but close. The plan is two before 5:00 pm and one after I see my score. Then it's all downhill from there.

Only the magic conch knows when the scores will be up.

Also, protip: Bacardi 151 if you are trying to get blackout drunk quick

Of course! Why didn't I think of that!?

Oh Great Magic Conch when will MCAT scores come out?!

 

[Nevadatim89]

This is torture. i cant eat!!!! I just hope they are adding a tad more respeck to my score, i hope thats what the wait is for.

You mean if you're trying to die quickly

 

[Dumbtesttaker]

I said 4:55, am I wrong?

 

[Kanella]

The obvious is that AAMC is trying to weed out 50% of us with each MCAT taken, and then making sure to eliminate a bunch more by making us go insane as we wait for our score. As a second-time-arounder, I can say honestly: my friends, I CANNOT wait to get past this incredibly unbearable limbo stage of our careers...... -_-

[coolcj35]

Long time lurker. 127/126/128/130 (511). Very happy to be done and congrats to everyone else!!

3.5 gpa from "little ivy". Athlete and a bunch of other ECs. Any thoughts on MD? (This is a serious question cause my gpa makes me nervous).

 

[banana_phone]

[Astra]

Got 130/129/126/132. Will that B/B score be a problem?

Shouldn't be. It is over 125.

 

[Astra]

Time to relax and start making school lists tomorrow lol

 

[PeruvianMD]

509: 128/125/129/127
Dunno how to feel about this....

 

[holdthemayo]

C / P : 128
CARS: 132
B/B: 129
P /S : 127


516!!!! 4 points higher than my best practice exam! I'm so thankful this is finally over.

 

[baratheonfire]

Have you guys been doing better or worse than your scored and sample tests? I got a 520 and 91% on those but I am really scared about how I did on the real one. I just want 515+.

 

[YoungDoc25]

504 (127, 124, 127, 126)
Was shooting for a 505+, but I'll take it. Hopefully the rest of my app makes me appealing! Congrats to everyone!

 

[BelieveMeChile]

As a May 14 test taker, could you guys post your practice test scores as well? I like to see the data on trends

[sbook2]

I am in shock and devastated. I thought I would have gotten at least 5 points higher worse case scenario. I am literally rethink this whole career choice right now.

 

[PeruvianMD]

I got a 507 on the scored, and 509 on the real things, if anyone is interested.

 

[David513]

Real MCAT Score: 512 (127/125/130/130)
Section Bank C/P timed @ 8min/passage (1 week from test): 59%
Official Guide Qs timed 8m/p (1wk): ~80% for all sections
AAMC Practice FL Scored (1wk): 517 (129/130/129/129)
EK FL 3 (2wks): 75% (all sections the same)
AAMC Practice FL Unscored (3wks): 81% (68%/85%/85%/86%)
EK FL 2 (4wks): 69% (low C/P and CARS)
EK FL 1 (5wks): 65% (low C/P and B/B)
If I could go back in time, I’d do the other Section Bank parts, study my practice tests more closely, and get my timing better since my nerves on the real exam slowed me down, causing me to not have enough time to review any more than 3 marked questions for each section. Oh, and I’d focus more on Khan Academy for psych/soc.
Parting thoughts…
I thought I had done far worse than my practice tests. I thought I bombed C/P and B/B but rocked CARS and CARS ended up being my lowest section. Oh well! PM me if you have questions.

 

[medprospect22]

I feel nauseous. When I got to B/B, I knew I couldn't think clearly but didn't realize how poorly.

I got a 511, but with a breakdown of 128/128/123/132... I don't know what I should do. I didn't get anything lower than a 127 on B/B on every single practice test. I don't really care whether I go to MD or DO, or really any specific school for that matter. Should I retake and risk applying late or do I just apply early on June 7th and hope for the best. Any feedback is appreciated

Damn, I completely I ****ed up that badly

 

[Gomedorgohome]

We are finally done guys I'm so happy.
